Transcending the Runway: Saint Laurent Productions and Rodarte’s ‘Woodshock’

In an age where artistic boundaries are fluid, luxury fashion designers transcend the runways and haute couture shows to venture into the realm of cinema. At the intersection of style and storytelling sits luxury fashion house Yves Saint Laurent, who just last year announced the start of their film production company, Saint Laurent Productions. The French fashion house is set to release its first feature film, “The Shrouds” directed by David Cronenberg this year, but this isn’t the first time luxury fashion icons have delved into the art of filmmaking. From costuming Darren Aronofsky’s “Black Swan” to releasing their directorial debut “Woodshock” in 2017, Kate and Laura Mulleavy of the fashion label Rodarte have also expanded their creative pursuits in the realm of cinema.
