Weekend Eye Candy - Yves St. Laurent Wedding Gown, 1983

Our second June bride wears a slim lace sheath overlaid with layers of tiered white tulle.  Pink satin bows adorn the neckline and waist.  Yves St. Laurent, 1983.  The photographer has captured the ethereal nature of the tulle by the use of a back light to great effect.

My Fascination Continues

Last week, I showed you some images of quirky fashion from 1984 that intrigued me. Today, my fascination continues with a look at garments from 1983. I'm starting to see a common theme: unusual shapes, combinations of subtle patterns and textures, and neutral colors. Where will this take me? And where can I find clothes like this today? My search begins.
