Description

It's no secret that we are obsessed with Yves Saint Laurent, but this incredible Fall/Winter 1982 runway dress is truly a work of art! This runway show received glowing reviews from fashion critics across the globe and the most noticeable mention was YSL's use of silver taffeta and velvet. This iconic dress epitomizes the elegance and sophistication that defined the collection.

This stunning evening gown has so many signature YSL elements and the fit can only be described as design perfection. The way the leg of mutton sleeves billow above the long velvet cuffs and the movement of the voluminous taffeta skirt need to be seen in person to truly be appreciated! The waist is cinched and you can choose to wear the original sash style belt tied in the front or in the back.

Good condition: A few scattered tears to top layer of the skirt taffeta near the hemline (as shown in photos)

In order to best determine fit, measure yourself or a garment of a similar style that fits you well. Compare those measurements to those on the item description.
