Rain On Me: Saint Laurent Glams up the Classic Hunter Wellie

2020 has certainly been a year for the unexpected and a collaboration between Luxury French fashion house Saint Laurent and British heritage brand Hunter is one that seems as if shouldn’t work, but somehow works perfectly. From the humble Wellington boot you can always rely on to endure that endless muddy trek from campsite to main stage to a high fashion collaboration that is fit for any haute couture runway. The brand have certainly put their best foot forward with this striking boot.

The signature, black rubber below the knee boot has been embellished with metallic silver studs and thick buckles, channelling the brand’s creative director Anthony Vaccarello’s classic punk royalty vision. As well as being a must have accessory, the boot still stays true to the Hunter brand and does not compromise their comfort, functionality and waterproof qualities. Made for both rural and urban landscapes. We don’t know about you, but we can totally see this piece at a music festival or on the Champs Elysees, more than likely sported by none other than Kate Moss.

The limited edition wellington boots are exclusive to the Saint Laurent Rive Droite store in Paris, meaning they are one of brand’s most exclusive pieces to get your hands on. The boots are expected to retail at $695, certainly making them an investment piece for the season ahead. Our fashion forecast predicts this show stopping, statement boot will take the fashion world by storm so be sure to keep your eyes out when they drop.
