museum quality gown Excellent condition

Closes at the front with the buttons as seen and has one inner button

Well Documented Spring 1983 Yves Saint Laurent Haute Couture Runway Look 53 Silk Floral Dress designer-joy-stevens museum quality gown Excellent conditionThe twin of this dress walked the runway as Look 53 for the Spring 1983 Haute Couture collection. It was made under the creative direction of Yves Saint Laurent. The dress would've been made entirely by hand in the Paris atelier. On the runway it was shown under a jacket when the model first came out and then she removed the jacket. I love that this shows you how versatile these little dresses can be.
