Classic smoking outfit YSL boldly created a neutral style

When it comes to the origin of smoking outfits, everyone must be unfamiliar: when smoking began, it meant that the upper class men took off their tuxedos and smoked in the smoking room after the dinner. Instead, they put on that kind of black lightweight clothing. Called "smoking." In 1966, the famous French designer Yves Saint Laurent boldly created a neutral style, designed the first female smoking outfit, and also became a symbol of the beginning of the era of men's wear.

Inspired by men's dresses, the design incorporates feminine design elements in the neutral style, making the original rigorous styles fashionable and combining the essence of men's and women's fashion. It features a slender suit, a tuxedo, and an elongated tight-fitting pencil trousers. The overall shape is i-shaped, slender and slender, such as a slender cigarette, with an innocent and handsome, without losing the feminine charm. The classic elements of a smoking outfit include bow ties, vests, pencil pants, chunky heels, metal accessories, British gentleman hats, slender fur suits, leather gloves, pleated silk scarves, and long boots.

Although Saint-Laurent was the first designer to design “smoking outfits” according to the characteristics of the female body curves, similar neutral outfits had been popular in the literary and art circles in Europe as early as the 1920s. Famous writers and poets Gertrude Stein and Radcliffe Hall have a soft spot for this neutral tuxedo.

When a person's eyeballs are flooded with the left and right costumes worn by the stars on the red carpet, a tailored tailless coat is obviously a more sensible choice - 1970 In ‧ Saint Laurent put on a pure white smoking suit for his own bride, wearing a veiled bowler hat; the following year, Bian Kajgel had almost the same attire and Mick Jagger, the lead singer of the Rolling Stones. Married. This kind of dress that gives women masculine and feminine temperament is even more disorienting than an exposed dress.

The smoking outfit is not just a trend. It has been immortalized as a form of fashion. For decades, whether it is a ready-to-wear show or a haute-couture show, we can all find it. 2011 is no exception: Tom Ford's first comeback show at the beginning of the year recreated the classics created by Saint-Laurent; Haider Ackermann's 2011 fall/winter mixes smoking and sexy satin dresses to create a blend of elegance; and in Yves Saint Laurent, designer Stefano Pilati once again paid tribute to the legacy of the late fashion masters. Models wearing long, double-breasted white suits and trousers resembled modern Bianca Jagger.

This is the classic charm! It is also the Yves Saint Laurent saying: "For any woman, smoking is an essential dress. Wear it, a woman can always stay in the trend Among them, because it embodies the style, not the trend; although the trend is evanescent, the only style is forever."
