Documented Spring 1986 Yves Saint Laurent Runway Black Jersey Plunge Dress designer-thierry-mugler Length: 31" from waist toThis fabulous dress is the twin of the dress that walked the Spring 1986 Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche runway. I was so pleased to find some shots of it on because it really shows you just how much it comes to life when worn. On the runway Yves put a short curved cropped bolero over it for part of the walk. An interesting thing to note about this dress is that it is a version of the 1973 plunge dress that I have shared on my Instagram in the past.
