The New Saint Laurent Silhouette: RIIZE’s Anton Graces the Cover of Esquire Korea

The intersection of fifth-generation K-pop and Parisian haute couture has found its latest defining moment. Anton of RIIZE has officially been revealed as the new face of Saint Laurent, starring in a cinematic cover story for Esquire Korea that signals a bold evolution for the young artist.

Photographed under the creative direction of Anthony Vaccarello, the editorial captures Anton in a series of sharp, elongated silhouettes that echo Saint Laurent’s signature tailoring. Dressed in dark navy knits layered over crisp collars, complemented by horn-rimmed eyewear and minimalist jewelry, Anton transitions seamlessly from youthfulness into an authoritative, edgy fashion muse.

Coming right after his standout presence at Saint Laurent’s exclusive Andy Warhol exhibition event in Seoul, the campaign highlights a growing shift in modern luxury—where fashion houses bypass fleeting trends to build genuine, long-term synergy with artists who naturally embody their aesthetic DNA.
