Vintage Yves Saint Laurent Check Turtleneck Sweater Blue M

A lattice of blue, black, yellow and teal checks forms the surface of this Yves Saint Laurent turtleneck sweater, the pattern rendered in a soft acrylic blend with a gentle hand. The high collar and ribbed cuffs suggest a knit meant for layering, unadorned by logos or hardware—only the geometric motif stands out, with no reference to its atelier beyond the shape itself.

No main label is visible, only Japanese care tags at the inner seam; the size is approximately M by measurement. Light pilling appears at the surface, but the structure remains crisp, and the interior is fully lined in matching blue fabric. The absence of branding or model identifier makes precise dating difficult, though the palette and construction echo the house’s experiments with colour and texture across decades. The mannequin normally wears a size M.
