Softly and cruelly
Tenderly and madly
...
***************************************
A lovely jersey top with earthy and beautiful leaf hand embroidery.
Very flattering and slimming asymmetrical cut, very soft fabric drapes beautifully and smartly.
The positioning of pleats is inspired from Chinese seven-stringed zither (gu qin), The neckline is also smartly pleated to go with the pleates along the main body. You might see this detail in last picture.
This design’s main body part is finished in early Jan, we brainstormed and experimented a lot of times to work out the embroidery part. It should be clean and beautiful in an earthy way in our mind, hope we did it :=)
If you do wish to have your top plain without embroidery, it is fine, just let us know via cnversation or Note to Seller box when checking out.
All sizes are available, don’t forget to let us know your usual size and color choice when checking out (there will be NOTE TO SELLER box), or send us a conversation via etsy.
