1980s Metallic Openwork Top with Beaded Trim

About the Item

A unique find, this tunic top is composed of vertical rows of openwork metallic thread in shades of blues and lavender and features butterfly sleeves and scooped necklines back and front. In front, the neckline is adorned with a heavily beaded border in coordinating colors that provide further enrichment. The shoulders and back neckline have alternating openings and knit, showing skin, and are finished with a chain stitched edge, while the hemline and butterfly sleeves are finished in handkerchief edging. The full body and sleeves fall softly with an almost pleated effect. A truly one-of-a-kind artisan piece. One size.
