I bought this suit on private sale, right after Mister Saint Laurent announced his retirement…… I got it just in case-in case I will one day get to use my education for something more than an Apéritif story...
I don't have to tell you who Yves Saint Laurent was - to say that he was a legendary couturier is as the least I could do...
not only this suit is beautiful, timeless classic, with elegant details (like silk signature lining), but it brought me luck from the first time I ever put it on...
Imagine Wednesday morning -April in Manhattan – it was my day off , which is common for people working in fashion industry ... the phone rings - it's friend, who got me a job interview at the very reputable financial firm downtown...
I took a quick shower, with no time to blow dry my hair I decided to put it in sleek back hair do < didn't quite work out, since my hair is naturally wavy and the wind of Wall street area is harsh> I arrive in time-wearing black pencil skirt suit-this one...a little nervous and very exited... in I still to this day think it was my best interview ever... It was an hour+ long, with lots of questions and not easy explanations...<-so, you have master degree in engineering... -yes, sir I do, but I never had a chance to use it... -so, you never worked in office before?? - no, sir, but I always wanted to use my education... and this position seems like a perfect one for me ..> BLAH>>BLAH>>BLAHHH. I was totally unprepared - all I could do was to go with the flow: Positive attitude + good look!!!
LISTEN, I nailed it...I GOT THE JOB!!!!
I have to admit that YSL suit I was wearing must have contributed a lot to the outcome of this interview!!!
This suit is a miracle worker!!! It makes you feel strong and it gives you power!
I could go on and on about strange feeling you have once you worn it...for example: I met my future husband wearing this suit...
Now it's your turn!!
Fit in it-Get it-Enjoy your strength!!!
Yves Saint Laurent suit -$$$ (instead of $$$$);
Feeling unusually powerful-PRICELESS!!!
