This is one of three tops that my client had made about 15 years ago using a combination of new with antique / vintage fabrics and detailing from various 1920s pieces that were beyond repair or found as fragments. Each is a one off and the only one like int ever made. This one uses a vintage silk kimono fabric for the body of the top that is a bright coral orange colour and is just fantastic. The top is cut into an easy to wear sleeveless tank that you just slip over the head to wear. The main part of the top is made from the kimono fabric and then there is a solid coloured matching silk stripe that runs down each side. The upper shoulders are made from a pretty pastel turquoise silk chiffon. I love the colour combination and contrast that the two colours create. Hand applied to the front is a fantastic found hand beaded piece and embroidered fragment from the twenties. This is set to follow the scoop of the neck and trail down the front. Her tailor was couture trained and all three of these tops are beautifully made. Excellent condition 

Unlined and slips on to wear with a hook and eye at the back of the neck. It appears to have never been worn or worn very little. The loose and easy cut should allow it to fit a range of sizes.
