From the top down: The neckline features antique hand crocheted lace around the collar and ties behind in a bow. Two antique hand crocheted lace doilies hand sewn to the under bust to look like the most beautiful bra is peeking through the mesh overlaid. The main bodice is a thick structured, dark green stretch that functions like a push-up bandeau. 3/4 length lantern sleeves, are made from brown silk charmeuse with black polkadot mesh overlaid. Accented with vintage ivory fringe and green trim at the cuffs. The back fastens with black oversized buttons and elastic loops, form fitting and comfortable. Mocha silk sash, cut on the bias, can be tied tightly. Open peplum cotton and vintage lace trim.
