1980s Black Ribbed Knit Wide Neck Top

Yves Saint Laurent
1980s Black Ribbed Knit Wide Neck Top
Size 38 fits XS

Striking vintage Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche top from the 1980s, made in France in a black knit.

The design combines a close-fitting ribbed body with a dramatically wide scoop neckline that opens across the collarbones. Short sculpted sleeves are gathered at the shoulders, creating a softly puffed silhouette that contrasts with the narrow, body-conscious torso. The result is a distinctly feminine shape characteristic of Saint Laurent’s 1980s work, balancing strong shoulders with an emphasized waist.

The fine vertical ribbing gives the cotton considerable stretch and allows the garment to closely follow the body. Finished with narrow ribbed trims around the neckline and sleeves.
Condition
Good overall vintage condition.
Small repair on the shoulder as seen on the photograph.
