RARE Yves Saint Laurent Red and Black Silk Crepe Embroidery Floral Heels For Sale

This is a lovely pair of VERY hard to find, vintage Yves Saint Laurent Red and Black Silk Crepe Embroidery Floral Heels. Disregarding the fact that these luxury high end heels were made by the esteemed high fashion brand Yves Saint Laurent, the added appeal is that I GUARANTEE you will not find these heels elsewhere…if you are a fan of Yves Saint Laurent, and are looking for something unique… something vintage Yves (but in beautiful condition)… and something that none of your friends will have - this is perhaps what you have been looking for!

These Yves Saint Laurent heels are striking and impossible to miss when paired with the right dress. Crafted from a soft, plush, luxurious silk, the body of these heels are a deep red, and the heels a midnight black. I cannot speak highly enough of the quality of the silk. To myself, they feel like the softest of suedes at the exterior. You just don’t see many heels these days (and even FAR fewer from the Yves Saint Laurent line) composed of silk - and I have to say that is truly a shame. There is something elegant, something formal yet refined about the look and feel of the deep red silk at the body of the heels, and the midnight black silk at the heel itself. The contrasting hues create a sense of depth and character - a layering effect that draws the eye. The red on these heels is truly DEEP red… even in dim lighting they are something to behold - but in a well lit ballroom? Or in natural, bright light? I am a male, and I don’t exactly go in for heels - but I can recognize beauty… and these heels are simply stunning. A throwback to a day when Yves Saint Laurent really started breaking boundaries.

While the red and black silk is something to behold, the black crepe floral embroidery is simply unparalleled. This hand seamed embroidered floral pattern covers the entirety of the body of the heels. It is INSANELY tight knit - with no loose seams or fraying whatsoever. The detail in the embroidered pattern is quite jaw dropping. Yes, on face value it is a beautiful design… but if you really look closely, you’ll find that these heels are far more intricate and complex in their composition than initially seems. I have always loved how the embroidered design is “open,” meaning you can see the deep red silk “bleeding through” the black crepe embroidery.

These heels are in beautiful shape. While they were worn, the former owner adored these heels. She meticulously upkept the silk material at the body and heel, and it shows. No staining, tears, frays, etc. In essence, the only real wear comes at the bottom outer soles, and on the bottoms of the heels - where you will find the normal scuffing (but no deep divots). Again, these heels were beautifully kept.

The insoles on these heels are a deep vibrant yellow gold leather… nice and soft and again without any significant wear.

They are a size 9, and quite true to size. The insoles are 10 inches in length, these heels have a width of 3.25” across, and the heel itself is 3.5” high.

The heels come with the original box and Yves Saint Lauren monogrammed tissue paper.

Overall, these are highly unique pair of vintage Yves Saint Laurent heels. The pair of heels everyone around you will admire and wish that they had - though, they will indeed have a HARD time finding a pair of their own…
