Chic Spring 2008 Yves Saint Laurent by Stefano Pilati Runway Look 35 Deep Fuchsia Pink Silk One Shoulder Dress

  • The twin of this dress was Look 35 on the Spring 2008 Yves Saint Laurent runway for Look 35.
  • It was made under the creative direction of Stefano Pilati
  • On the runway the dress was worn by Freja and it was also shot on Kate Moss that season.
  • Stefani said that he had been thinking of "goddesses and stars" for the evening pieces.
  • This was the strongest dress of the collection and I love having all of these reference photos for you because you can see just how beautiful this dress is on the body.
  • The dress is made out of a beautifully weighted silk that is cut on the bias. The colour is a deep fuchsia pink. That is a rich and lovely jewel tone.
  • The end entire dress falls from one shoulder. The sleeve on that side is kept simple, starting out wide from the body and then narrows at the cuff.
  • The front of the dress angles down on a curve and it does the same at the back. It is more fitted through the bust and curves past the waist.
  • The bias cut lets it skim over and fall over the hips to highlight your curves.
  • The skirt falls from there and is made from seamed panels that give a nod to the thirties in their execution.
  • The skirt is very full and that, combined with the bias cut, give this incredible movement as you move. It  is an extremely sensual and sexy feeling dress once on.
  • I think this was one of the strongest dresses of his entire time at this label.
  • The dress is fully lined in a matching pink silk and it closes with a hidden set zipper at the side. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
  • There is no size tag present so please go by the measurements listed below.
