This ultra-glamorous Yves Saint Laurent maxi evening skirt from Fall 1982 is crafted from lush black velvet and black tulle with a velvety floral flock print and a silk chiffon underskirt. The clever combination of tulle and delicate silk chiffon creates a subtle transparency which is very appealing, elegant and sexy at the same time. The skirt is widely flared and finishes at floor-length, perfect for any evening occasion. Side zipper and metal hook and eye. Tulle 100% polyamide, lining 100% silk. Made in France.
