Whether it be at Dior Homme or Celine, check out the French designer's most show-stopping moments throughout his career.&nbsp;

Known for his sleek and understated aesthetic,&nbsp;Hedi Slimane&nbsp;has been a pivotal force at some of fashion's biggest houses&mdash;Yves Saint Laurent,&nbsp;Dior Homme, and now,&nbsp;Celine. Notoriously&nbsp;secretive, the French creative lets his minimal, edgy garments do the talking.&nbsp;
Starting his career off at Dior Homme in the early&nbsp;2000s, Slimane established himself as a major force within the menswear industry. Slimane's approach to menswear was wholly unique for the time. With skinny suits, kilts, and angular silhouettes, the designer bravely took an&nbsp;androgynous&nbsp;approach to menswear at the famed French house.&nbsp;
Continuing this polished approach, Slimane had a stellar tenure as the creative director of&nbsp;Yves Saint Laurent&nbsp;from 2012 to 2016 that saw him experiment with new fabrications and expand his sartorial lexicon. Today, the designer is head of luxury house&nbsp;Celine,&nbsp;where he has established a distinct wardrobe blending French bourgeois with modern themes. To celebrate Slimane's 53rd birthday,&nbsp;L'OFFICIEL&nbsp;rounds up his 11 most memorable runway moments from his high-profile creative director stints.

Dior Homme Fall/Winter 2004

Titled "Victim of the Crime," Slimane's Dior Homme Fall/Winter 2004 collection embodies the designer's sleek and edgy vision that he brought to the French house. With&nbsp;pleated&nbsp;kilts, slinky ready-to-wear, and versatile outerwear, the runway show displays Slimane's immense menswear know-how and distinct eye for innovation.&nbsp;

Dior Homme Spring/Summer 2006

Deconstructed tailoring was at the forefront of Slimane's Spring/Summer 2006 collection. Along with&nbsp;skinny jeans, suspenders, and&nbsp;striped&nbsp;pieces, the collection embodies the rocker chic vibe that has since become synonymous with the French designer.&nbsp;

Dior Homme Fall/Winter 2007

Continuing his androgynous approach to menswear, Slimane presents a masterfully tailored collection of separates for Dior Homme Fall/Winter 2007. Whether it be trailing wool&nbsp;scarves&nbsp;or technical suiting, Slimane definitely hit the mark this season.&nbsp;

Yves Saint Laurent Spring/Summer 2013

Slimane's womenswear debut at Yves Saint Laurent is a showstopping melange of reimagined corsetry, foreboding dresses, and sultry&nbsp;hats&nbsp;that concealed several of the models' faces. Slimane would continue this boho-rocker aesthetic throughout his tenure at YSL and also into his current position at Celine.&nbsp;

Yves Saint Laurent Spring/Summer 2014 Menswear

Set behind a flashy runway in Paris, Yves Saint Laurent's Spring/Summer 2014 menswear collection sees Slimane continue his sleek vision for the brand. With bold prints and pared-back&nbsp;tailoring, the collection channels the elevated chicness of the Hedi Slimane man.

Yves Saint Laurent Spring/Summer 2014

Slimane's Spring/Summer 2014 collection for Yves Saint Laurent references the DNA of the iconic French house with sexed-up nods to&nbsp;Le Smoking suit. Woven in with the all-black ensembles are mini dresses, skirts, and angular pieces completed in pops of color and pattern.

Yves Saint Laurent Spring/Summer 2016 Menswear

Towards the end of his tenure at Yves Saint Laurent, Slimane begins to experiment with new silhouettes and fabrications. For the Spring/Summer 2016 men's season, the designer incorporates distressed&nbsp;knits&nbsp;and a bevy of layered pieces.&nbsp;

Celine Spring/Summer 2019

Slimane's debut at Celine is certainly one for the books. Fresh off of the drama surrounding the&nbsp;removal of the accented "&eacute;" from C&eacute;line, the designer presents a new vision for the French house which includes sexed-up silhouettes, minimal styling, and flashes of interesting design notions.

Celine Hommes Spring/Summer 2020

Continuing his distinct menswear aesthetic, Slimane's&nbsp;Spring/Summer 2020 menswear&nbsp;show for Celine is a celebration of his greatest hits and also features new sartorial ventures. As the first-ever menswear show for the house, Slimane definitely produced a collection to remember filled with distressed&nbsp;denim&nbsp;and utilitarian outerwear.

Celine Spring/Summer 2021

A notably pared-down collection for Slimane, the&nbsp;Spring/Summer 2021&nbsp;collection is a breezy showcase of casual ready-to-wear separates. Situated on a sprawling athletic field, the collection fully displays the casual wearability of Slimane's Celine.

Celine Fall/Winter 2021

Slimane continues to showcase his elegantly casual ready-to-wear on the picturesque grounds of the Ch&acirc;teau Vaux-le-Vicomte&mdash;with a stunning firework show completing the collection. For&nbsp;Fall/Winter 2021, Slimane opts to toy with a more structured approach to casual separates with tailored&nbsp;blazers&nbsp;and sculptural evening wear stealing the show.
