About the Item
Guy Laroche (1921–1989) was a Parisian couturier celebrated for refined, wearable glamour. He launched his fashion house in 1957, helping to define modern French ready-to-wear in the 1960s and 1970s while maintaining couture-level craftsmanship. These earrings were worn by a model on the runway for Laroche's Spring 1992 haute couture collection. Crafted from gold-plated metal woven to a mesh formation, they form a large leaf shape. The sculptural leaves are shaped to sit with the stalk over the ear, then curling theatrically down to chin length and back behind the ear. There is a clip-on clasp on the back.
These archival vintage earrings are in very good to excellent condition. Unsigned as most haute couture jewellery was at the time. These have been stored away in an archive for decades with rare runway provenance. There is no wear to the gold on the outside of either earring, but there is a miniscule bit of wear on the reverse of the sides - not noticeable when worn. Please check the measurements below as these are large statement earrings.

1986 Yves Saint Laurent Haute Couture Gold Brooch and Necklace
By Yves Saint Laurent
Located in London, GB
This large, well documented brooch was couture crafted by Robert Goossens for Yves Saint Laurent in 1986, when the eponymous founder was still at the helm of the brand. Crafted from gold-toned metal, it has a floral shape created from two layers of petals studded with glittering rhinestones. The centre of the flower sits a huge (< 1 inch) yellow-amber hued glass stone that glows warmly. This is held in place with four droplet-shaped rhinestones set in gold-toned metal which form strong prongs. Three petals hang from the brooch, each joined to it with a rhinestone-studded oval shaped plate. The back of the brooch features a plaque engraved with “YSL” and it fastens with a roll-over clasp. The brooch comes with the original YSL chunky double-strand gold-tone metal chain which it can be attached to (using a hook on the back of the brooch) so that it forms a necklace. The chain fastens with a chunky spring clasp.
This magnificent archival brooch and necklace set is in excellent vintage condition with no missing stones and no scratches to the gold on the front. Please note, there are a few very minor scratches to the rear fastening - not seen when worn. The metal has a matte satin appearance and is a rich, warm hue. To the reverse is the rectangular YSL signed...
