A rare find in lovely condition! This sweet knit dates from the early 50s and is a classic sweater girl style. It is made from a soft, thin and textured black knit with some stretch, and features a figure-hugging and cropped shape. The collar is short and rounded, and it buttons down the front with original black buttons. Each bust features a pretty swirling floral motif with prong set diamantes and embroidery. This would have most likely been part of a set and is missing its partner belt.

Vintage clothing is often homemade and/or follows a very different size guide to modern-day clothing. Please ensure you check the measurements carefully on the product description before making your order. We use a rough sizing guide based on waist sizing:
XS | Waist 22"- 25"
S | Waist 26"- 27"
M | Waist 28"- 30"
L | Waist 31"- 32"
XL | Waist 33"- plus
Please do not take the size guide as gospel as the size stated here may not be the size you would normally buy. It is very important to know your bust, waist and hip sizing ahead of purchase.
