For Spring 2024, Jacquemus’ latest sartorial collection, "Les Sculptures," celebrates the interplay of volume and structure. Each piece is meticulously crafted, embodying a fusion of minimalist aesthetics with voluminous elements that command attention.

There was a daring juxtaposition of a sleek little black dress layered beneath a pristine white shirt, exuding an edgy yet sophisticated look. Sultry red drape dresses command attention with their sensual allure, while snakeskin prints adorning select bags add a touch of exoticism to the collection. Knitwear takes on a new dimension with intricate honeycomb patterns, showcasing Jacquemus's mastery of texture and design. Attention to fabrications remains paramount, as evidenced by sweaters with sleeves knotted across the chest and shoes boasting trompe-l’oeil double heels—a testament to Jacquemus's dedication to pushing boundaries.

Some pieces have a little couture-esque element, like the layered trousers with circular skirts, which add a theatrical theme to the collection. There were also off-shoulder tops for men, a grey blouson jacket paired with voluminous sleeves, and matching Bermuda shorts, which look very modern, simple, and functional. Innovative tailoring also took the stage with contemporary suits, including a buttonless blazer paired with wide-leg trousers. New additions to the accessory line include the Le Vanito vanity bag and the Le Petit Calino top handle bags.

Other pieces, such as the cream croc-embossed trenchcoat with a scooped neckline and the black shirtdress with bulging hips, exemplify the brand's ability to marry classic elegance with contemporary sensibilities, solidifying Jacquemus's position as a trailblazer in the world of fashion. "Les Sculptures" epitomizes the essence of modernity and innovation, offering a glimpse into the future of Jacquemus.
