his sweet vintage top dates to the early/mid 1970s - I bought it brand new during that time at a Chicago boutique. The blouse is fitted with vertical darts. It has a sailor collar of filet-style lace that inserts into the vee neck. The short sleeves are turned into angel sleeves with the addition of a godet of the the same lace. The sleeve edges are trimmed in machine made cotton lace. The bottom hem is finished so it can be worn untucked if preferred.
