Description

A beautifully preserved pair of vintage Yves Saint Laurent pumps in saturated fuchsia suede.

The design is pared back enough to let the color and silhouette make the statement. Sharply tapered toes, low-cut vamps, and slender covered heels create a long, refined line, while the rich suede gives the vivid pink a soft, dimensional finish.

Metallic gold-tone interiors carry the full Yves Saint Laurent name. The smooth black outsoles are finished with engraved YSL monograms and clearly marked European size 36.

The intensely colored suede and streamlined pointed-pump construction reflect the polished, high-impact footwear language associated with the late 1980s and early 1990s. They work equally well as evening shoes or as the single flash of color in a restrained daytime look.

Pair them with black tailoring, a narrow cocktail dress, dark denim, a charcoal column skirt, or a deep burgundy knit. The fuchsia also works beautifully against ivory, chocolate brown, navy, emerald, and metallic accessories.

Fit Notes

Marked European size 36 and estimated to best fit a modern women’s US 5.5/6.

The sharply tapered toe and close pump construction may feel more fitted through the forefoot than a contemporary rounded-toe shoe carrying the same European marking. These are likely best suited to a narrow or standard-narrow foot, or someone comfortable with a close pointed-pump fit.

Approximate modern international equivalents are UK 2.5/3, EU/FR/IT 35.5/36, and JP 22.5/23. These conversions are guidance rather than guaranteed equivalents because fit varies according to maker, production period, last, width, toe shape, and preferred toe room.

Condition

Excellent Vintage Condition.

The fuchsia suede retains vivid, even color and presents beautifully overall. Visible wear is limited to light nap variation, faint surface handling, subtle marks around the toes and heel counters, and expected light wear to the metallic gold-tone interiors.

The smooth black outsoles show minimal surface wear, with the engraved YSL monograms and size markings remaining clear. The suede-covered heels present well, and both heel tips retain visible tread.

No major staining, deep abrasion, sole separation, collapsed heel, or structural damage is visible in the photos. Please review all images closely, particularly the suede toes, heel counters, interiors, heel tips, and soles.

Styling Notes

Use the fuchsia as the focal point. Pair these with a black trouser suit, dark straight-leg denim, an ivory blouse, a charcoal midi skirt, or a narrow evening dress.

The color also works beautifully with oxblood, chocolate brown, navy, emerald, and warm metallic accessories.

Curation Note

Each Quirk piece is hand selected by our team for quality, construction, styling potential, and point of view.

Authenticity Note

Thank you Quirk, Thanks for going above and beyond and for restoring my faith in humanity! Margo and Raul

Quirk is a great place to rent or buy unique clothing. Melynda has curated such a great variety of items. I rented a gorgeous gown for a work event and bought multiple things including a vintage Italian suit that I get complimented on all the time. It is a wonder place to discover and elevate your personal style.

Went by on a Saturday with my daughter. Melynda was awesome and helpful, as always. We both found things we needed. What I appreciate about Melynda is the personal service and how she honestly cares about if something is "right" for you or not. She actually mended something I had just bought right on the spot (wouldn't let it leave with an almost loose button)! Appreciate her sense of style and will defiantly be headed back.

The BEST vintage shop in LA!! The minute you walk in you are greeted by the owner and stylist, which is rare for a vintage shop, if you ask me! Melynda is absolutely wonderful and provides excellent customer service! Since she's a professional stylist she's extremely knowledgeable about fashion and helps you coordinate outfits together. She has a great assortment of women's and men's clothing, shoes and accessories. I try to visit the shop once every two weeks, you just can't beat the prices, it's cheaper than Wasteland! If you are looking for one of a kind vintage pieces from the 1960's to now, Quirk is your place to shop! They carry Theory, James Perse, APC, Prada, Burberry and many more! I highly recommend this vintage shop!!

I had a really good experience at Quirk. Its located in DTLA which is known to give you headaches with parking. Luckily there were several fairly priced garage options on the same block. The shop is located on the second floor of this cool, early 20th century style building. I love vintage buildings so I was hyped before I even stepped into Quirk. But once inside I was really digging the vibes. They have a really selection of vintage, modern clothes for women and men. With assistance of the curator, Melynda, I was able to grab a few items for an upcoming headshot session. I didn't have to break the bank as the items I purchased were from a $20 rack. I will def go again. I highly recommend checking it out.

Quirk is WONDERFUL! Small but mighty, always new and exciting finds, plus the real deal when it comes to fashion and expression. Owned by a stylist/awesome fashionista, with a passion and drive that offers the best experience in vintage shopping. I got the most gorgeous silk blouse...and some shoes that fit me like Cinderella! If you live in Los Angeles, you know how hard it is to find awesome vintage at a reasonable price. From the fight over Dior at a thrift store, to the snobby and over priced 'bo-ho' Buffalo Exchange, to the trendy and overly pretentious places on Melrose-it's just another face in the crowd, on the scene. It's more comfortable and personable at Quirk. You get the deals, yeah-but the experience is worth more!

I've been coming to Quirk for years now. Some of my favorite pieces have come from her shop and I always get compliments. It's the perfect place to get something unique that not everyone has. Top quality items. One of my first pieces I bought from her is a vintage Armani blazer that has become a regular staple piece for me. Still in my rotation years later :) The shopping experience itself is always a treat (coming from someone who doesn't like shopping). Melynda is super welcoming and helpful if you're looking for something in particular. If she doesn't have it, it's likely she will soon, as she's regularly getting new inventory. Also, be sure to check out her shopping events!

Ten out of five stars for Melynda and her all volunteer Quirk crew for creating the People's Free Boutique in an unused corner space in DTLA, providing much needed, intentional, and high quality clothing and supplies for those of us who lost everything in LA's January fires. My family and I came to Quirk and were welcomed with care and respect, mirroring the quality and thoughtfulness of the clothing offered, and being given the dignity of choice to dress ourselves in clothing that we prefer. The Quirk crew were professional and kind, dealing with a gradually melting down child and frazzled adults, recognizing and validating the collective trauma of their guests, and providing a space of hope, solace, and care out of the goodness of their hearts. I was able to restock much of my professional and casual wardrobe, grab some high quality toiletries, kids clothing, and an epic penny board for my kid. I cannot recommend a visit to the People's Free Boutique and Melynda's Quirk store on 9th enough!

Melynda totally saved the day! She came on a magical unicorn and brought me my dress! I was searching for a dress for a wedding that went with their Great Gatsby theme and was totally not sure where to begin and what to wear. She helped me find a necklace and a dress here at the shop that was absolutely perfect! I got a gold and gunmetal tassel necklace and a robin egg's blue lace Tracy Reese dress. She was even kind enough to alter the shoulders for me since the wedding was the day of! They even had a funny wedding card that for the bride and groom! Mission accomplished, now just have to get a scarf or headpiece for my head to complete the theme and Melynda gave me some tips!! Will be back for next time when I need her expertise. They have an always shifting collection of curated vintage and new clothing. Love Quirk LA!

Favorite place to shop. Melynda always has the best treasures and she does custom designs. I bought a vintage dress from her to wear to a Gucci event, and I got soooo many compliments! Go now. This is definitely a must shop place in DTLA .

I volunteered at Quirk all afternoon today, and there is so much love and support alive in that space. They are overwhelmed with so many incredible donations and every single thing is being sorted and placed directly into the free shop where fire victims can come shop and get what they need. All items are the same quality you would find in a thrift store like Buffalo Exchange. There were volunteers helping people find clothing items that fit and served their needs while they’re grappling with the loss of their homes and belongings. There are so many ways fire victims need support and this is one of them! Thank you Quirk and the other amazing organization and businesses stepping up to help our community!
