Adorable 1950s Hand Knit Red Floral Detail Sweater designer-fendi There is just enough weight

There is just enough weight to the fabric to hold the shape and volume the piece requires but it is still surprisingly fluid

From the iconic 2002 Mombasa collection by Tom Ford for Yves Saint Laurent I present this stunning silk corset top

The fabric itself though is not heavy or thick at all

Length: 29" from top of bodice to hem

Skirt length: 40" from waist seam to the bottom of the hem

Adorable 1950s Hand Knit Red Floral Detail Sweater designer-fendi There is just enough weightThis little red sweater is so fabulous and it is a wonderful example of the mid century knitwear that was coming out of countries like Germany for the tourist market. It is completely hand made and I love the floral design that is worked through the knit around the collar and curving around the back as well. The knit through the body is nubby and is slightly raised so has an extra dimension to it and I love the little cord that runs through the waist
