Saint Laurent Green Gold Print Silk Peasant Blouse YSL, 1970s

Following the grand success of his 1976 Russian collection, YSL once again had situated himself as a trendsetter. Drawing inspiration from traditional folk attire, YSL rounded out the 1970s with the iconic bohemian styles that commonly classify the era. Done in an enchanting emerald sheer silk, this peasant blouse is decorated with gold lamé detailing as well as arabesque motifs in magenta, light green, and orange.

Taking advantage of the delicate drape, this blouse is loose with a regal shirred ruff collar and voluminous bishop sleeves that finish in shirred cuffs that match the neck. The style of this blouse merges the relaxed elements with Elizabethan references that allow for this top to be a perfectly balance high-end wardrobe addition.
