Ludovic de Saint Sernin makes his debut as Ann Demeulemeester's creative director with the Fall/Winter 2023 collection during Paris Fashion Week.

<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/ludovic-de-saint-sernin-spring-2020" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ludovic de&nbsp;Saint Sernin</a> has officially made his debut as creative director of the Belgian fashion house, Ann Demeulemesteer, during the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/loewe-fall-winter-2023-runway-collection-looks-photos" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fall/Winter 2023</a> Paris Fashion Week, and this collection is a special one because it was born "from a feeling of intimacy and respect" towards the legacy of the founder. The quill&mdash;an element highly admired by Demeulemesteer&mdash;was a star of the show as it was used as a bra-like garment at the opening and closing of the line. Simple, classic silhouettes were also the focal point of the collection, along with dark, leather fabric.&nbsp;
Sensuality and gender fluidity are two themes de Saint Sernin&nbsp;emphasizes in each of&nbsp;his collections. The hands crossed over the breasts, a reference to the Maison's Spring/Summer 1995 show, provide a sense of privacy as well as provocation.&nbsp;&ldquo;Writing a letter is always about both the sender and the recipient. It is a meeting, an exchange. In this show, Ludovic de Saint Sernin continues to find himself in Ann, while retaining his sense of self. It is an introduction, a preamble, and as such it should be continued."
