A low empire line, pure silk swing top. This design is based on an original 1920s fashion detail but updated into a modern sleeved style, this top is perfect for some luxurious lounging. It can be worn with or without its waist tie making it truly versatile and would also make a wonderful evening outfit option, true underwear as outwear.

The neckline is decorated with exquisite french lace, appliqued onto the silk to create a light and delicate decorative feature. I use lace off-cuts from other designs for this, so the pattern pieces selected will be individual to each top, your top will be truly unique. All the seams are french seamed for a luxurious finish.

The waist fit is very loose, so please go off your bust size when choosing your fit. As a guide please use: 8: 32", 10: 34", 12: 36", 14: 38", 16: 40", 18:42", 20:44", 22:46" Please contact me about custom sizing.

This top goes perfectly with the rest of my Sarah range, or any of my Collection No. 1 if ordered in ivory or black. The ivory is a sand-washed satin, matching my Emmeline Ivory Tap-pants, and so has a more matte finish.

This item is hand wash only to preserve the silk, you will receive care instructions with you order, please follow them.

Handmade by myself in Kent. Lead in time generally 2-3 weeks.
