2002 Tom Ford Yves Saint Laurent Mombasa Top designer-ceil-chapman It looks so shockingly modern

It looks so shockingly modern and fresh that it will literally blow you over when you see it in person and realize this date to somewhere in the very very early twenties or late teens

The sleeves are cut on a curve and have a high cap shoulder

The bodice is hand placed and then flat pleated into place

I just adore this detail - it just is that little extra touch that you find in vintage tat you don't find anymore

2002 Tom Ford Yves Saint Laurent Mombasa Top designer-ceil-chapman It looks so shockingly modernFrom the iconic 2002 Mombasa collection by Tom Ford for Yves Saint Laurent I present this stunning silk corset top. One of the stars of that runway show, this top is still as fabulous and forward feeling now as when it debuted on the runway. It is made of a screened silk chiffon and lined in a nude silk net. Raw edged net detail the seams on the shoulders, sides and front. Grommets run down the front and raw edged ties lace both the front and the back
