Yves Saint Laurent Spring 1987 Haute Couture Raffia Dress z-archive-1980s The length is supermodel long

The length is supermodel long at 65" from shoulder to hem

Sequins have rapidly gone from evening only to be worn almost anytime of the day - something that seems a new trend but Halston was championing this in the mid and late 1970s and who can argue with one of the greatest American designers

The jacket is amazing with its loose blousing silhouette that would have perfectly topped his form fitting silhouettes

Lined in a matching red silk and closes with a series of hook & eye and snaps that conceal the zipper from the waist down as to not interfere with the line of the skirt

Partially lined through the top as described above and then the rest of the jumpsuit is unlined

It is almost impossible to photo on a dress form. Please reference the runway photos for how it will sit on a body. It's made out of raffia and has a sense of transparency to it because it has no lining Reference Photos: (1 2) S S 1987 Yves Saint Laurent Haute Couture Runway Show.
