Please see measurements in description.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA striking example of vintage Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche tailoring, this silk smoking jacket reflects the powerful, feminine silhouettes that defined Saint Laurent’s work in the late 1980s and early 1990s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLaunched in 1966, the Rive Gauche line was revolutionary in bringing couture-level design to ready-to-wear. Named after Paris’ bohemian Left Bank - long associated with artists, writers and creative rebellion - it embodied a more relaxed, intellectual spirit of Parisian style while retaining the impeccable tailoring of the house.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreated with luminous red silk, this piece is cut with Saint Laurent’s signature sculptural structure: strong shoulders, a softly shaped bust and a sharply defined waist that creates a dramatic hourglass silhouette! The design draws inspiration from the house’s iconic ''Le Smoking” tailoring, reinterpreting classic menswear codes in a bold, glamorous silk fabrication. Gold-tone buttons and full lining complete the piece, allowing the jacket to hold its architectural, iconic shape while remaining fluid and elegant when worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery good vintage condition. There is a small area where the silk dye has lightened slightly due to previous cleaning, visible in the photographs. Because of the natural sheen and movement of the silk, this is far less noticeable when worn. The price reflects this imperfection. It would be possible to spot-restore the jacket for a near perfect finish. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComparable Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche silk jackets in flawless condition often retail for £750 or more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasurements (taken flat)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePit to pit: 17 in (34 in bust)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaist: 14 in (28 in waist)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabelled size: French 38 – best suited to a modern UK 8–10 depending on desired fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA beautifully tailored collector’s piece from one of fashion’s most influential houses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease feel free to contact us with any further questions prior to purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Bohemian Boutique","offers":[{"title":"8","offer_id":56827857699191,"sku":null,"price":345.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0926\/0905\/3047\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_9f0d4e26-c476-4205-bd03-bef7ca0c94c6.jpg?v=1772618277"},{"product_id":"rare-vintage-yves-saint-laurent-wool-cape","title":"RARE Vintage Yves Saint Laurent Wool Cape","description":"\u003ch2\u003eVintage Yves Saint Laurent Wool Cape – Red – 100% Wool – Statement Piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStriking vintage Yves Saint Laurent wool cape in a rich, true red with contrasting black trim - an effortlessly elegant piece that captures the timeless sophistication of classic YSL design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelieved to date from the late 1970s–1980s era of Yves Saint Laurent's ready-to-wear collections, this cape reflects the house's iconic approach to relaxed tailoring and dramatic, fluid silhouettes.
