1970's Yves Saint Laurent Grecian Haute Couture Red Satin Dress at 1stDibs 1970's YVES SAINT LAURENT red floral silk halter neck dress with Yves Saint Laurent Red Silk Jacquard Bow Tie Dress 1970s For Sale at 1970's Yves Saint Laurent Ruby Red Corset Peasant Dress at 1stDibs. This red Yves Saint Laurent dress is especially fun because it can be worn so many different ways. Its like having a half dozen dresses in one. It is made from a red crepe silk gauze that has a touch of transparency to it. There are yards of fabric used in its construction and it is very light in weight. The versatility come sin part from that loose and easy cut and also because of how the waist, neck and cuffs are finished. The waist has a drawstring that runs through and ties. The drawstring itself is a pink braided silk cord that ends in tassels. I love that little pop of contrasting color this gives the piece. You can leave this loose and ling so the dress becomes a long maxi dress, or tie it as high as you wish around the hips or waist to make it shorter on you. The neck has that same multi function as it is finished with a wide gathered elastic under the fabric that allows you to wear it off shoulder or higher. The sleeves are also finished in that same elastic detailing that allows you to wear the long or pushed up. High slits sit along each side of the skirt and this is a piece that can easily go from beach to market to evening depending on how you style and wear it.
