This sleek black poncho cape is wonderful. It is by Yves Saint Laurent and is a beautiful and easy to wear piece that will fit virtually any size. A similar piece was shown on the runway for the 1982 collection and I have included reference photos from that show so that you can see just how great it works on the body. It is a wonderful example of the work he was doing during this time period. The cut is very simple. The back is one large panel and then there are two panels that fall across the shoulder and down the front. You just drape it over your shoulders and it simply falls into place once on. It is made out of a light fine black wool and all the edges are finished in his signature braiding. It looks to have been worn very little if at all and is the type of item that you can throw over almost anything. Excellent condition
Unlined and drapes over the shoulders to wear
Each front panel is 26" across and the back is double that.
It falls to approx 50" in length once on
