Original 1970s Designer Vintage Yves Saint Laurent Linen Top Size 8/10



An exceptionally rare and refined Designer Vintage piece from Yves Saint Laurent, created as an original design exclusively for Fortnum & Mason — a collaboration that perfectly captures the understated luxury and forward-thinking tailoring of the era. Crafted in a soft cream linen with a beautifully natural texture, this sleeveless top feels both timeless and strikingly contemporary in its design. The silhouette is clean and sculpted, with carefully shaped darting through the bust that creates a flattering, structured fit, while the high neckline and sharp collar add a subtle architectural edge. Concealed popper fastenings run down the front and around the collar, allowing the piece to sit smooth and uninterrupted when worn, enhancing its sleek, minimalist finish. Non-stretch and expertly constructed, it reflects the quality and precision you’d expect from a house like YSL. With a 34" bust and 21" length, this fits approximately a modern UK size 8/10, sitting neatly on the body with a tailored feel. A true designer staple, this works effortlessly styled with high-waisted trousers or a statement skirt for a clean, elevated look that feels just as relevant today as it did when first made. In very good condition; the label is partially detached but this does not affect wear and can be easily re-secured if desired.

    At My Vintage, we take time to carefully measure each item of vintage clothing so that you have the best chance of ensuring a good fit whenever you buy from us. We measure the clothing laid flat as the diagrams show below and for bust, chest, waist and hips we double the measurement. For example, if the waist measures 17" across when laid flat then this would equate to a 34" waist (17 x 2 = 34)

     

    We use the measurements we collate to assign each item of vintage clothing with an approximate modern-day size. For example, a dress with a 34" bust, 28" waist and 34" hips would normally equate to a current UK size 10. The labels on vintage clothing can vary massively depending on country of origin and date of manufacture.  Clothing sizes have changed over the years and from decade to decade we see alternative types of sizing as well as variations on the way measurements equate to dress sizes.

     

    We always recommend that you double-check the measurements of the vintage clothing item you are interested in, ideally by measuring an item of clothing you already own and that fits well, and comparing these measurements. There can be variations due to the desired fit, shape and fabric of an item but our size guidelines are normally very accurate and take the stress out of buying vintage online.
