Vintage Yves Saint Laurent Double-Breasted Trench Coat Late 1980s Tan 52

Draped across the shoulders, the tan shell of this Yves Saint Laurent trench coat settles in a clean, fluid line from sharp collar to hem, punctuated by a double row of dark brown buttons with cross-stitch detail. The silhouette is unembellished, cut with a gentle taper at the waist and a knee-grazing fall, finished with a single vent at the back and a sweep of beige satin lining visible in motion. An inside pocket set into the lining offers a discreet space for small essentials.

The label — orange embroidery on brown, serif font spaced wide — places this coat in the late 1980s to early 1990s, during the founder’s own tenure at Yves Saint Laurent. The construction favours the era’s precise yet unassuming tailoring, a mood that ran from the Rive Gauche boutiques to Paris boulevards: a coat built for the city, without spectacle.

The cotton-blend outer holds a subtle crispness, showing light wrinkling and minor wear to the fabric; buttons remain intact and secure, with no visible logo hardware. The beige satin lining is clean, with one internal pocket for a wallet or card case. No accessories are included. The mannequin normally wears a size M.
