Vintage Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche Oversized Trilby Hat – Raspberry Pink Straw – Late 1970s Deadstock Collector Piece
Product Description
An exceptionally rare and highly collectible late-1970s Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche oversized trilby hat in a striking raspberry pink hue. Crafted from finely woven straw with a dramatic wide brim and sculptural crown, this museum-worthy piece perfectly captures the bold glamour and effortless sophistication that defined Saint Laurent’s golden era.
This hat features an oversized silhouette with a softly structured crown, sweeping brim, and delicate tonal ribbon trim tied asymmetrically around the base. The vivid raspberry pink color remains remarkably vibrant, creating an unmistakable statement accessory that feels as relevant today as it did when originally produced.
What makes this example particularly special is its original Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche labels and tags, indicating it was never worn and remained preserved for decades. The interior label shows Made in France and size 57, confirming its authentic Parisian production. While the hat presents as unworn, there is some gentle age-related fading and minor storage wear consistent with a piece that has been carefully archived for nearly half a century.
Rarely encountered on the market—especially in such a bold colorway and with original tags intact—this is a true collector’s piece for vintage Yves Saint Laurent enthusiasts, fashion historians, couture collectors, and those seeking an extraordinary statement accessory.
