YVES SAINT LAURENT Coat

Show-stopping 1980s Yves Saint Laurent Fourrures grey blue dyed vintage mink fur coat.

 

Description

This stunning fur comes direct from a very fashionable German client and therefore has not been on the market prior to this.

 

The incredible 1980s design is in exceptional condition and appears to have been worn very little if at all. It is a rare and wonderful vintage fur from an important couturier. An equivalent fur coat by Saint Laurent purchased now would cost upwards of 20,000 euros and would not be one of a kind like this one. Truly a treasure and exquisitely beautiful in person.

 

The coat is made in France from supple, soft and shiny Saga mink fur and dyed in a wonderful grey blue colour that I absolutely love!

 

It is from Yves Saint Laurent's 'Fourrures' label and cut in a slightly oversized swing style with a flared bottom. The coat is pieced together in vertical stripes set extremely close together and features long, wide cut sleeves with a fold-up cuff on each one. The pockets are hidden along a seam on each hip. Fully lined in a black silky rayon. Closes with fur hooks at the front. Tagged a German size 38 and a French size 40. It should work on a variety of sizes.

 

No matter how amazing it seems in the photos, it is even better in person as the camera cannot capture the way the fur catches the light. Sometimes it appears more grey, sometimes more blue.

 

Please enquire for a video to get an idea of its suppleness, outstanding colour and perfect condition.

 

Condition

This coat is in excellent condition. Appears to have been worn very little if at all.

YVES SAINT LAURENT Coat

Important and rare Yves Saint Laurent Fourrures Autumn-Winter 1976/77 Russian Collection broadtail fur and mink trim coat

 

Description

Yves Saint Laurent was one of the first designers to pay homage to Russia and its traditional garments. His iconic and opulent Autumn-Winter 1976/1977 "Opéras – Ballets Russes" or so called "Russian Collection" included peasant ensembles and various Cossack-style coats made of luxurious textiles such as fur, chiffon, silk, velvet, and gold lamé. Laurent himself regarded this collection as one of his finest: “I don't know if this is my best collection. But it is my most beautiful collection.”

 

This Yves Saint Laurent Fourrures labeled coat is a well documented piece of fashion history and, as a key look of this collection, highly collectible. An investment piece that will continue to increase in value. Versions of it are part of The Met Museum and The Museum at FIT. See reference photos.

 

The breathtaking design is pure Yves Saint Laurent from that time and made from a high-quality genuine glossy broadtail fur in delicious shades of brown, from cinnamon to chocolate. The dark brown mink fur trim throughout including a half belt at the back emphasizes the beautiful lines and gives it that Anna Karenina vibe.

 

The bodice has a high neckline and long sleeves with mink fur trimmed cuffs. I love how the lower part of the coat is set into the waist seam with slight gathers along the top that flare out below the waist in a swing style. An extremely figure flattering cut! The coat closes at the center front with four beautiful and eye-catching tassel decorated dark brown Brandenburgs or passementerie frog closures and is fully lined in a matching rayon.

 

Condition

This coat is in excellent condition. Perhaps the slightest wear to the end of the tassels. Appears to have been worn very little if at all.

 

Size & Fit

Shoulders: 42 cm – 16.53"

Bust: 96 cm – 37.79"

Waist: 96 cm – 37.79"

Hips: open

Sleeve length: 66 cm – 25.98"

Length: 133 cm – 52.36" (from neck to hem)

 

Measurements are taken flat across from side seam to side seam and then DOUBLED for bust, waist and hips.

 

Corresponding Modern Size: M

Mink Fur Cape

Description

This lightweight cape is composed of champagne-coloured plush real mink fur. It features a huge fur backed collar which can be worn up or laying on top of shoulders, a gathered shoulder section and front slits for arms when closed. The cape closes with one hook and eye, has two hidden lined slit pockets at front and is fully lined in champagne-coloured silk satin. Into the left pocket there is the "Fur Label Authority" label sewn-in. This label was added to fur garments for consumer protection since 1956. "It assured consumers that the furs complied with the guidelines set forth in the Fur Products Labeling Act and were manufactured under fair labor standards. This label included an identifying number that matched the number on the invoice which again required the name and origin of the animal to be included" (courtesy of furwise.com).

The cape ends approximately at the hip bone and has no monogram. The fur is glossy, soft and supple. A very versatile piece – perfect for any formal event or wedding or to dress up a casual look.
