Women emulate his fashion with ready to wear copies from their favorite shops. Fashionistas created their own signature style base of his designs. The first big sellers designed by YSL and copied were pea coats, a-line jumpers with pattern turtleneck and matching hose, and white shift dresses with linear primary colors inspired by the Dutch artist, Mondrian.
By the seventies, Yves St. Laurent had the tendency to break the barriers and became a design rebel at heart. Unheard of at the time in the workplace for any woman was the pantsuit. Not only did women rave of its comfort, but it added warmth to the legs traveling to and from work during the winter months.
Eventually, YSL franchised his initials onto his line of handbags, makeup and perfume. The YSL insignia became recognized as pure class, thus these three initials appeared on thousands of more items.
The Rive Gauge Boutique opened up on Madison Ave., whereas clients poured in the doors for anything bearing his initials. All this happened prior to other couture designers jumping on the bandwagon of merchandising their name.
Whatever he showed on the runways was a guarantee to be what women would don in some way.
The brand new and authentic YSL Chain-Detailed Clutch Handbag has the edginess that even Yves St. Laurent would approve of this season and for the the next twenty. This soft new YSL nappa leather clutch is in the sought after steel grey with fine detailed stitching.
What sets the clutch above the rest is the embedded chain draping gracefully from the press stud fold-over flap near its base. However, that is not where it ends, as the silver tone chain link is included in a section of the single leather shoulder strap. The strap is detachable to make this YSL modernizer into a hand held clutch.
Dark suede with its hue of chocolate is centered in the roomy interior which embraces a sizeable pocket.
Yves St. Laurent´s livelihood afforded him as the first designer whose styles were always anticipated as diverse. Even vintage pieces continue to remain up-to-the-minute. The brand-new and authentic YSL Chain-Detailed Clutch Handbag is nothing less than that and declare that trendsetter appearance even years in future..
