The Life Exotic

Marrakesh, Proust, Visconti, an odalisque by Matisse, Les Dames du Bois de Boulogne and Ingres. Poetry mixing with the street and the past mixing with the present is the impression we have when looking at pieces by Yves Saint Laurent.

Truly amazing fashion design allows you to travel someplace else and perhaps become someone else. Truly amazing fashion design also allows you to do this without looking or feeling ridiculous. Who is the woman that this circa 1978 deep violet gown with an asymmetrical neckline was made for? We think that she is the most glamorous, the most sophisticated, the most confident and the most seductive woman in the room.





Circa 1978 deep violet Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche dress. Size 38.
