Yves Saint Laurent Fall 1991 Runway Slinky Gold Lame Dress trunk-past Its twin walked the runway

Its twin walked the runway that season and I am happy to have the runway shots of it and video so you can see how spectacular this dress moves when on the body

The inner dress closes with a back hand set painted metal zipper and the top also zips to close up the back

The corset and the long skirt are both made of a rich copper gold metallic fabric that has black silk medallions scattered over its surface

The perfect finishing detail on this dress are the inset panels that run all through the skirt

Yves Saint Laurent Fall 1991 Runway Slinky Gold Lame Dress trunk-past Its twin walked the runwayThe Shrimpton Couture Archives The twin of this dress was worn on the Yves Saint Laurent runway by supermodel Yasmeen Ghauri. We also found runway footage and lots of reference photos of the dress as she walked the catwalk in it that season. It is an exceptional rare and wonderful piece by Yves Saint Laurent. These gold lame pieces are what defined that season and I am very pleased to have found this example. Especially given its tie in with Yasmeen.
