50s Vintage Cocktail Sweater Shell Top Jeweled Trim S/M Modest Pinup VFG
These embellished tops are amazingly flattering, modest yet sexy! Fitted with cap sleeves and ribknit bottom. High neck is knit (or crocheted) in a peekaboo metallic windowpane pattern with alternating windows filled with pearl beads.
SIZE: No size label. Measurements taken laying flat - the knit gives quite a bit of stretch.

CLOSURES: The sweater slips on over the head and fastens with three small embossed gold metal buttons and loops at the back of the neck.

I measure the outside of garments, unless stated otherwise.
For menswear, the chest is measured at armpit level.
For womenswear, the bust is measured a little below armpit level, including the room created by darts or gathers.
Waist will be measured if there is one, and hips are measured about 9" below waist level. Sleeves are measured from shoulder seam or an approximation in the absence of a shoulder seam. Garment length is measured from the back of the neck, unless otherwise stated.
The measurement numbers refer to the garment, not the body inside. For best fit, measure a similar type of garment which fits you well and compare.
If the garment is shown on Josephine, my mannequin, her measurements are 31/24.5/34". Sometimes she wears a padded bra. My live models measurements vary depending on the day and year, and I don't ask them to share that.
