1960s Black Courreges Paris Shift Dress designer-bill-tice A fabulous Yves Saint LaurentThis is a stunning Courreges shift dress and one of his classic designs. The fabric is jet black and done in his signature fine wool with just a touch of texture running through it. Little cap sleeves and square neckline with button detail. The skirt is pure Courreges with the seaming and pockets set as was his signature. I love the flared cut of the skirt! Impeccably constructed as one would expect. This is instantly recognizable, classic Courreges.
