Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche Wool Check Jacket with Black Silk Velvet Trim
A striking vintage Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche jacket, combining richly textured checked wool with sumptuous black silk velvet. Made in France, this beautifully tailored piece brings together a bold pattern, a defined silhouette and dramatic contrasting details.
The wool fabric features an intricate check in deep red, charcoal grey, black and cream, with a softly fuzzy surface that adds depth to the geometric design. Against this textured background, the black silk velvet provides a beautiful contrast, its subtle sheen catching the light across the collar, lapels and cuffs.
The generously proportioned lapels are the focal point of the jacket, sweeping across the chest to create a strong, elegant frame around the neckline. Decorative buttons on either side accentuate their angular shape, lending the design a subtle military and equestrian influence. The collar can be styled raised, as photographed, to emphasise its sculptural quality.
Defined shoulders and carefully placed seams shape the jacket through the waist, creating a feminine silhouette with a gently flared line towards the hips. The back is equally considered, with vertical tailoring that gives the checked fabric a clean, structured outline. Long sleeves finish in broad black velvet turn-back cuffs, detailed with matching buttons.
Three decorative front buttons feature dark centres, gold-tone borders and an ornamental motif. Two neatly integrated front pockets complete the design, while the dark interior lining provides a smooth finish.
A distinctive statement jacket that works beautifully with black cigarette trousers, a narrow skirt or flowing silk. For a more relaxed interpretation, pair it with denim and boots, allowing the rich checks and velvet details to take centre stage. Its red, cream and black palette also makes it a beautiful choice for autumn, winter and festive dressing.
