Yves Saint Laurent jacket, model Variation 1988.

This black and white striped jacket comes from the legendary Yves Saint Laurent 1988 collection, nicknamed Liberation or Forties Collection for its direct inspiration from the women's wardrobe of the 40s. With its pronounced shoulders, double-breasted design, and fitted cut, it embodies a strict, sensual tailoring that was deeply transgressive for its time.
Made from a fine vertical striped wool, it celebrates retro elegance while heralding a new era of assertive femininity. Bold, political, and resolutely couture, this piece is a manifesto of style and avant-garde to be worn like a style armor.
