Spectacular Spring 1990 Yves Saint Laurent Haute Couture Silk Damask Runway Suit w Amazing Pearl Jewel Buttons Lame & Metallics The body of the dress

The body of the dress is loose and easy

It seems to weigh mere ounces when you hold it and yet it somehow manages to retain the structure and volume he intended it to have

or wear something nude and/or covered underneath and you can go out for the evening in it with a quick change of shoes and accessories
