Early Saint Laurent label?

    Hello!

    I just bought this gorgeous Saint Laurent Rive Gauche cape and I'm so excited to receive it!

    I've been doing some research on this label (which is not in the label resource) and so far all signs point to it being late 60s / early 70s. But I would love to have your opinion.

    The first two images are the original seller's and the third is an image I found online. I found another cape in this style with the same label on ebay and the seller says it's from the 60s.

    Any insight would be much appreciated!

    Lovely cape, it would be great to add the first label to our resource. We have the others you have shown but not the one with the made in France underneath. I would agree with 1960s.

  3. I see very late '60s to very early '70s with that colour and smart styling.

    Thank you for the replies.

    I found a photo of Catherine Deneuve wearing this cape!

    And here's a better photo of the label if you would like to add it to the resource.

    Many thanks!

    Where is the photo from? Curious, was the cape specifically identified?

    Nope! Just my conclusion from deep research. I can't be 100% sure of course, but after hours upon hours of digging, this is the only example I could find. The photo was taken by François Gagnon for Paris Match October 1970.
