60 Tina Leser Top Vintage Bohemian Knit 70s Shirt Silver Accents Small VFG
This striking vintage top dates to the late 1960s or perhaps early 1970s. It's by famed designer Tina Leser, although this Bohemian style was a departure from her iconic 50s work. This look is more "Hippie with a trust fund", with its body conscious fit, and veeneck placket accented with shimmering silver trim. The bling is repeated in a wider band at the cuffs, which flare subtly.

FABRIC/COLORS: The fabric is a gently ribbed knit with a silky feel. Based on a fiber burn test, I think it is probably a rayon/acrylic blend. The color is a rich dark blue. The trim is also a knit - it seems to be a border print fabric used more as a braid. The woven pattern is boldly graphic with a hint of middle eastern motifs, done in gleaming silver lurex against a matching navy blue background.

CLOSURES: A nylon zipper down the mid back with two hooks & eyes at the top of the neck. The sleeve cuffs each close with three small self fabric buttons and cord loop.
CONDITION: One of the bling covered buttons has a few silver threads fraying at the edges. No other issues noted.
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.
