60s Wedding Guest Jacket Semisheer Top Eyelet Embroidered Peekaboo Vintage Women's L/XL VFG Sheer
This semisheer vintage jacket top probably dates to the 1960s, and may have originally been intended as lingerie. It is so pretty and unusual - it can be dressed up or down! Overall boxy shape, gently fitted with darts, scalloped edges to jacket bottom and sleeves, delicate overall floral embroidery.

CONDITION: Excellent. I don't see any stains, holes, tears or other issues.
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.
