TOM FORD YSL - ICONIC - Burgundy Velvet Corset Bustier Lace Runway Top 42 10 NWT

Designer Yves St Laurent Rive Gauche by Tom Ford Size 42 FR / 8-10-12 US (Adjustable Fit) Measurements Around 34-38"B, 30"W, 19"L Condition: New With Tags Material: Velvet, Tulle: 100% Silk Color: Burgundy Lining Full Tulle Lining It comes from Tom Ford's blockbuster reign at YSL Rive Gauche and this top was a center of the collection - they were on the runway several times - they were in the ad campaign - they were in Vogue - they were on the red carpet. Reese Witherspoon, Naomi Watts, Helena Bonham Carter, and many others wore these. This collection was designed with the idea of a darkly sensual woman who cocooned herself in the most sumptuous silks and velvets and whose clothing could all fall off at a single pull - hence the emphasis on bows and luxe fabric you see here. The structure comes primarily from the corset-y top which grips onto your body and the tulle gives it some stretch. The closure is by metal hook-and-eye and the tulle lets your skin peekaboo through. The neckline is straight and fringed in eyelash fringe and the hook-and-eye is trimmed in a modernist ruffle. The sleeves are attached to the shoulder strap, and all of it finishes in a sensual oversized bow. The top is guaranteed authentic. It was purchased by a private client and went right into her cold-storage collection - it was never worn and all original tags and store tags are still attached. There is a small sewing flaw under the left right cleavage (see close-up.)
