  • The twin of this dress walked the runway for the Spring 1973 YSL collection.
  • It was made under the creative direction of Yves Saint Laurent.
  • The dress is very well documented. Its twin was shown on the runway that season and one was photoed on Marlene Dietrich with Yves himself. I love that. 
  • Its modern day provenance includes being worn by Emmy Rossum and the dress that she wore is one that came from us.
  • The dress is not perfect so please make sure to read the entire description before purchasing. It is completely wearable as found.
  • This is one of my favourite dresses that Yves ever did. I believe there was a remake of it a couple of years ago, but the remake do not come close to the quality and level of craft that the originals have.
  • The dress is made out of a fine slinky silk jersey in black.
  • Two triangles sit at the front and come in around the waist and tight little gathers. They narrowed to the top of the shoulder where they are held in place by brass chain and loops. They appear to have been made by hand and they have a beautiful touch of patina to them. I love how these are the only embellishment on the dress.
  • The triangles are set into the front and back in a way that allows the dress to plunge on all four sides
  • The front is set in a V right to the waist seam as is the back. And then because the triangles are set the way they are, you also get a deep plunge down each side.
  • I love how this leaves an unexpected flash of skin all the way around you but the way it's constructed holds the triangles perfectly in place once on the body.
  • The waist is set slightly high and inside there is a wide band of grosgrain ribbon that hooks into place and holds the dress around you. 
  • The skirt falls from there beautifully to the floor. It is from a single layer of the black jersey that is very full and then under that is an inner skirt made out of a matching black jersey. The movement this gives the skirt is incredible.
  • This is a defining piece from YSL history and an absolutely beautiful dress
  • The dress is fully lined in a second layer of the same silk jersey. It closes with a side, zipper and the inner grosgrain ribbon around the waist hooks to close. Around the entire top portion of the skirt there are a series of tiny thinning and holes. They do not appear to be present on the bottom or lower portion of the skirt. They are completely hidden within the pleats, but you do see them if you spread the skirt fully out and hold it up to the light. It is priced at less than half of what it would be if this was not the case. Please see the photo after the label shot for an example of it. 
  • There is no size tag present. Please go by the measurements listed below.
  • Excellent condition

Really nice men's long-sleeve, longline shirt
Size: Medium, Color: Wine Red
I ordered this casual crewneck shirt in Wine Red, size Medium, for my husband, and it's quite nice. The ribbed texture is not irritating to the skin, and the fabric is smooth and comfortable. In terms of fit, it is similar to a slim fit - not form-fitting, but also not too loose, so I'd say it's fairly true to size. One thing we both noticed was just how long the torso section was - quite a bit longer than most shirts. It is a longline shirt, but it is *long*. For his preference it's a bit too long, but if you're a woman in the habit of wearing your partner's clothing (Or you prefer the fit of men's clothes), this could be for you. The sleeves are an appropriate length for the size, so I wouldn't say this is necessarily suited to men who need a big & tall type of fit. Finally, the color - the wine red is a deep, rich red, and did not change in the wash. Overall, I think this is a great addition to a men's casual wardrobe. Definitely recommend.

Nice shirt!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Wine Red
We're pretty impressed with this shirt. It fits well and looks flattering. The design is simple and it seems to be appropriate for a wide variety of casual events. Most importantly, it is comfortable to wear. The material is soft and not too heavy, making it suitable for cooler days. It has a moderate amount of stretch and is of decent quality. I wouldn't mind owning more of these shirts in different colors, and the pricing is reasonable.

Looks & Feels Good!
Size: X-Large, Color: Wine Red
I got this shirt for my husband in wine red and he likes it a lot! He can be very picky, but he hasn't had any complaints about this shirt. The wine red color looks just like it does in the picture and it fits true to size. It can be worn on its own or layered under a shirt or sweater when the weather gets cold. Hubby has machined washed and tumble dried this shirt multiple times and it still looks and feels great!

Long sleeve tee
Size: XX-Large, Color: Wine Red, Size: XX-Large, Color: Wine Red
Ordered this one size up simply due to preference. It runs true to size otherwise. The material is stretchy and the color was accurate. The ribbing sets this apart from other plain long sleeve tees. The only thing I don’t like is the curved hem. Makes it look very girly.

Excellent fit and a good look
Size: Small, Color: Grey, Size: Small, Color: Grey
I'm very pleased with the way this shirt looks on me. Despite being a "squeeze" material, it's quite comfortable to wear. The fit, at least for me, is spot-on. Design-wise, I found that the lines on the front of the shoulders look a little odd, almost like they're supposed to the shoulder seams. But overall, I really like this shirt, and $20 for a shirt that fits this well is a steal.
