Yves Saint Laurent for Men 80’s Glen Check Tailored Two-Piece Suit

From Yves Saint Laurent pour homme, which has continued to update the aesthetic sense of men's clothing through tailoring by translating the intelligence of mode, we introduce a masterpiece that crystallizes Parisian chic with Japanese tailoring.

While based on a classic check, this masterpiece possesses a construction that sharply shapes the outline of the wearer.

This individual is estimated to be from the early to late 1980s, based on the fact that the domestic manufacturer code D-TK 468 listed on the quality label was assigned to Kashiyama Co., Ltd. at that time, and the presence of the design with the label l’esprit de Paris, which was standard for men's lines for department stores at that time, confirms the era based on physical information.

First, the material's outer fabric is 100% wool, and the dense weave that can be felt the moment you touch it subtly suppresses the shadow of the check pattern, establishing the pattern not as flamboyant but as depth.

Since the lining is made of a combination of polyester and cupro, it is good at releasing from the skin, and the smoothness when wearing the jacket makes the layering season look beautiful in your movements, which is a pleasant feature.

The jacket has a classic balance with a sufficiently wide lapel, and the V-zone at the chest is designed not to stretch out, maintaining a presence reminiscent of power dressing of that era, while naturally connecting to modern minimalistic attire with a sense of dignity.

Furthermore, the line connecting the shoulders to the body is constructed three-dimensionally, making it less likely to show unnecessary excess in the back drape, which makes the wearer's posture look beautiful and gives a sense of completeness that goes beyond just vintage.

The slacks leave room around the waist and have a silhouette that falls smoothly from the thighs to the hem, with less sway when walking, so despite being patterned, the gaze does not scatter, maintaining a neat impression, which can be said to be attractive.

And as an added value, what is noteworthy is the meticulous tailoring unique to the domestic license production handled by Kashiyama Co., Ltd. at that time, and the luxurious translation born by the era—bringing the atmosphere of Paris into practical use with Japanese pattern making and sewing precision—this is condensed into this one piece.

It is especially recommended for those who want to incorporate classic elements as a strength into their current wardrobe, or for those who want to add convincing authority to their attire, and for those who want to bring quiet authority into everyday life, this is a masterpiece that you should pick up.

As for styling, if you neatly coordinate a shirt with slacks and finish with leather shoes at your feet, the elegance of men's clothing demonstrated by Saint Laurent will naturally come to life, and by replacing the inner with a T-shirt to relax your shoulders, it also beautifully lands between mode and real.

Please take this opportunity.
