Curator's Note

Tom Ford's Autumn/Winter 2004 collection was his final presentation for Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche. The collection revisited Yves Saint Laurent's Autumn/Winter 1977 Chinese collection, with its Mandarin collars, pagoda shoulders, richly coloured silks and references to traditional Chinese clothing. Ford's interpretation included fitted jackets, pencil skirts and eveningwear in shades of emerald green, burgundy and blue. The Pagoda Jacket was one of the most recognisable designs from the collection. Its high collar, exaggerated shoulders and closely fitted waist appeared in several colours and fabrics. A satin version was shown on the runway, while a burgundy satin variation was photographed on Kate Moss in a fashion editorial. This jacket is made in teal velvet, with vertical quilted stitching, padded shoulders and a short peplum.

Tom Ford for Yves Saint Laurent

Tom Ford was appointed creative director of Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche in 2000. His collections drew on the house's established codes of bohemian femininity, fluid silk eveningwear and the Le Smoking, while bringing richly referenced geographic collections that remain among the most distinctive of his career: the 2001 Mexican collection, the 2002 African Safari collection and his 2004 Far East finale. Pieces from his four-year tenure at YSL carry a different sensibility to his Gucci work - more romantic, more geographically expansive, and are increasingly represented in museum collections and private archives.
