1979 YSL Yves Saint Laurent Moon & Stars Sleeveless Tunic Top Documented

Almost three decades have passed and the moon and star remain iconic to Yves Saint Laurent. Recent collections have shown the celestial bodies on wallets, shoes, belts, dresses and shirts. In this top from 1979, the nighttime symbols appear in bold green, purple, red and white on a background of black rayon crepe. The print caught the eye of editors at Vogue UK, who featured it in a head-to-toe outfit on model and Yves Saint Laurent muse Gia Carangi that year. Rendered on a timeless tunic silhouette, it will be just as easy to wear today—for day or evening—as it was at the height of the New Wave era.
