Vintage Autumnal Paisley Chintz Dress

About the Item

This one-of-a-kind vintage dress features the most beautiful paisley chintz print on cotton, in an autumnal palette of orange, green, and ivory. So many details make this piece special, from the square neckline (which I always adore) to the slightly pointed sleeves, and the way the pattern is pieced together in three separate panels at the hem— such intentional design details! There are shoulder pads, which may have been added later and can easily be removed, but I like the way that they offset the full skirt to create an hourglass shape. Closes in the back with a zipper. Measurements: Fits similar to a size Medium, but please refer to below measurements. Shown on a size Small and it's a bit large but still could work. Shoulder: 15" between shoulder seams Chest: 38" Waist: 29.5" laid flat up to 30.5" pulled taut Hips are free Sleeves: 15.25" from shoulder seam to longest point Length: just shy of 47.5" from shoulder to hem Great vintage condition.

  • Documented 1982 Yves Saint Laurent multicolor striped dress
    By Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche, Yves Saint Laurent
    Located in CULEMBORG, GE
    When Yves Saint Laurent visited Morocco for the first time in 1966 it changed his life forever. Struck by its beauty he immediately acquired a house in Marrakech and stayed there at least two times a year to design his collections. Yves Saint Laurent once said: ‘Marrakech opened my eyes to color.’ The colors of the stained glass windows and beamed ceilings of the Bahia Palace in Marrakech are a perfect example what inspired him when designing this particular dress for his Rive Gauche collection that came out in 1982. The exciting mix of vivid colors Yves Saint Laurent used designing this dress have a pattern of vertical stripes in lively red, purple indigo, apple green and Dijon yellow alternated with thin black and white stripes. Adding a pussy bow and bishop sleeves gives the entire look an elegant feel. The high quality silk is in a very good vintage condition and has been professionally cleaned and pressed. The state of this unique Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche dress is very good, only a small piece of the original mother-of-pearl button left hand button has chipped off (see the last photograph), but can be easily replaced. As you wish we can replace this with a new button without charging extra costs. The dress that was also featured in Vogue magazine in a 1982 Yves...
