"YVES SAINT LAURENT" 70's-80's structured herringbone tweed tailored jacket

YVES SAINT LAURENT has created moments when fashion was elevated to "everyday wear," and is a maison that has transformed the vocabulary of men's clothing into elegance by combining sensuality and intelligence with refined tailoring.

This idea was born out of a historical context in which it was linked to the culture of high-quality American department stores, and we will be introducing exquisite pieces that showcase the depth of herringbone tweed.

This masterpiece features a woven texture reminiscent of the British skeleton and structured lines flowing from the shoulders to the body, making it a piece that will improve your posture just by putting it on.

Based on the design of the tag and the fact that it is a double-brand with Dillard's, we can determine that this is a product that was released in the American market in the late 1970s to early 1980s, and we can also sense the Parisian spirit being translated into a "practical aesthetic."

The first thing that catches your eye is the herringbone weave, which creates depth with its light and dark shades.The closer you look, the more the shadows stand out, and from a distance it has a quiet surface that tightens up your outfit, giving it a versatile look that can be worn both on and off the job.

The lapels are slightly wider, creating a frame around the face for a classic impact, while the shoulders are moderately constructed, giving the design an outline that exudes the "strong will" typical of the transitional period from the traditional style of the 70s to the power silhouette of the 80s.

There are two buttons on the front, and when fastened the eye flows beautifully from the chest down to the waist, and when worn open the V-zone does not become too deep, giving it a good balance that is very appealing.

The chest and waist pockets are placed discreetly and the details are not too bold, allowing the quality of the material and tailoring to shine through, giving the garment an elegant feel that is unique to tweed.

Multiple buttons line the cuffs, adding rhythm to arm movements and visualizing the refined "meticulous finishing," giving a perfect impression all the way down to the hands.

The smooth lining on the inside makes it easy to put on and take off, and even though the tweed is heavy, it doesn't feel too stiff to wear, making it highly practical for everyday travel and switching between indoors and outdoors.

The value of this jacket lies in the fact that it combines the aesthetic beauty cultivated by Parisian fashion houses with the durability and realism demanded by American department stores, making "long-lasting wear" itself a style.

Because they have been chosen for their persuasive tailoring rather than for keeping up with current trends, they will remain elegant and not look outdated even when placed in your current wardrobe.

In terms of styling, simply pair a shirt or a lightweight cut-and-sew with wool slacks and top it off with leather shoes to create the refined look that YSL is known for.

Additionally, when worn casually over a simple dress or minimalist skirt, the masculine construction creates a contrast, beautifully incorporating the house's aesthetic of "transcending gender boundaries."

Please take this opportunity.
