If you love Yves Saint Laurent you will truly appreciate this YSL Haute Couture Fall/Winter 1976 / 77 navy blue wool coat. With chocolate brown sheared mink trim and its Cossack style, this truly iconic coat is a rare, collectible piece of fashion history. This is one of our favorite pieces from our YSL collection and the lucky person who buys it will treasure it for years to come.
This Cossack style coat was part of YSL's famous Russian inspired ""Ballet Russes"" collection. This collection stunned the world with its rich, vibrant colors, textures and silhouettes. We particularly love this coat because it is so wearable and fits elegantly into a modern wardrobe. The colors are still as vibrant and the fabric is still in as impeccable as the year it was made.
This stunning YSL coat has sheared fur on the collar and sleeve cuffs and braided strips across the bodice that close with marbled brown buttons. There are side slit pockets, and this stunning piece is fully lined. We love the beautiful hidden seams found in the couture silk lining and this simply feels heavenly when worn. Once you put it on you will never want to take it off!
Yves Saint Laurent made this coat in a variety of fabrics and styles for this collection and we can see why. It is such a sensational piece and we are so honored to be able to have it in our inventory.
