Gorgeous Fall 1986 Yves Saint Laurent Runway Plunge Silk Velvet Leopard Dress designer-roland-mouret The cut is very simple

The cut is very simple with no collar or cuffs

It isn a very light patina that gives it that perfect vintage feel but without feeling too worn

It has a beautiful tailored cut with light padding in the shoulders and long sleeves

There is space left between the two sides of the plunge and I love that little detail

Gorgeous Fall 1986 Yves Saint Laurent Runway Plunge Silk Velvet Leopard Dress designer-roland-mouret The cut is very simpleThis remarkable dress is the twin of the one that walked the runway for the Fall 1986 Rive Gauche collection by Yves Saint Laurent.

He did several variations of this look for that season and this deep brown velvet with its leopard print within the velvet is one of my favourites. I am obsessed with his work and this one is so well known,
