Anybody’s who’s anybody knows very well that Charli XCX is on a generational run as of late.

The Grammy Award winner has been thoroughly enjoying the spotlight while changing the game in the music industry, especially when it comes to chart-topping party hits. However, another industry some may not realize Charli also thrives in is the fashion industry, and her latest collab with Yves Saint Laurent was a perfect example of this fact.

In the first snapshot of a three-photo carousel the singer posted to Instagram this week, the “b2b” singer sported a colorful jacket, bringing back that beloved BRAT green mixed with a vibrant mustard yellow. Underneath, she donned a romantic gray romper with layered fabric cascading down the sides. She also held a cute butter-yellow handbag, which served as a neat pop of color to an already attention-grabbing ensemble.

As for her second look, she rocked a bright red pullover with cool blue detail on the zipper of the piece. An elegant pink lace skirt paired exceptionally well with the upper half, as did a pair of black, rounded sunglasses.

In a video for the collaboration, the artist could be seen wearing yet another fashion-forward look. This time, she sported a chocolate brown trench coat, an extravagant get-up that made the popstar look like a million bucks. With how effortlessly she posed in these luxurious threads, it’s made abundantly clear why Charli was chosen for this campaign.

As briefly noted above, these high-fashion pieces are from Yves Saint Laurent—namely, from Anthony Vaccarello’s Spring 2026 collection. The collection contains garments that lean into a lively aesthetic, with flashy apparel in an assortment of colors taking center stage. Lace hems and silk material are also protagonists of this collection, as seen in Charli’s rosy pink bottoms and gray bloomers.

As reported by Vogue Runway, the aesthetic for the Spring 2026 assemblage is resort regalia, only with a softer touch to truly encapsulate the serene and luminous vibes that come with a restful stay at an idyllic location. The collection’s aesthetic also extends to streetwear, with sophisticated yet graceful satin tops and floor-length ensembles included among the pieces.

Those influenced by Charli’s undeniable aura can get their hands on these marvelous pieces in the new year, once Vaccarello’s ocean of remarkable ready-to-wear masterpieces officially launches. Until then, bide the time by gazing upon the fashionista’s electric photos.
