A vintage Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche jacket, defined by its structured officer (mandarin) collar and precise military-inspired tailoring.
Dating to the late 1970s, the piece reflects Saint Laurent’s reinterpretation of uniform dressing, where traditional officer silhouettes were transformed into elegant, feminine wardrobe staples. The clean vertical construction, stand collar, and contrasting white braid trim emphasize a disciplined, architectural aesthetic rooted in classic military codes.
Crafted from a heavy cotton and linen blend in a natural twine beige tone, the jacket features puff shoulders and oversized spherical buttons, reinforcing its strong, authoritative silhouette. The contrast trim highlights the construction and adds definition while maintaining a refined, minimal look.
Produced under the Rive Gauche ready-to-wear line, this piece represents a key moment in fashion history when Saint Laurent brought structured, high-fashion tailoring to a broader audience.
