90s Vintage Oversized Men's Poet Shirt Black & White Batik Style Print Synergy VFG
- Description
This vintage SE Asian shirt is so easy to wear, looks great on men or women, and this is a nice larger size. The shirt is designed to fit loosely, and even flow a bit. The sleeves are batwing; ie, deep at the armpit sockets. Collar is modest - there is a single patch pocket on the upper left, and a deep shirttail hem.
SIZE: Labeled Medium, but oversized, and therefore can go larger, especially for a female.

FABRIC/COLORS: Fabric is rayon, with a dry hand, and nice draping. It looks like batik, not sure if authentic. The pattern is of small white motifs, arranged vertically, with shapes that remind me of sword blades or daggers, against a black background.
TAGS: Synergy, Turning Art Into Clothing, made in Indonesia
CLOSURES: Six squarish black plastic buttons down the front, with one on each cuff, and a spare on the inside front.
CONDITION: On my third inspection, I found a small faint discoloration on the left shirtfront next to the placket near the bottom - see closeup. Given the nature of the print, it is quite subtle. No other issues noted.
