This tank features a floral feedsack, likely from the 1950s. It is 100% cotton and the perfect weight for a summery top! This pattern was self-drafted, and I only made this one, so it truly is one-of-a-kind in the truest sense! It is lined in the same fabric, to add a bit of structure and support, and is highly adjustable due to the tie back. The bust can accommodate a range of sizes as well due to the side darts. If you are looking for it to be a bit more cropped depending on how you choose to style it, the bottom can be folded up discretely without adding bulk.
As this piece is made from a vintage/antique textile that has lived a full life before becoming a piece of wearable art, it is possible it shows its age in the form of some discolorations and wear to some of the fabrics. These areas are viewed not as defects, but merely giving it character and a nod to its past life. Please review the photos as returns are not accepted.
