What you can't see in most photos is that I replaced EVERY dark rhinestone in this sweater (because I have the rhinestones and I know how to do this), so if they look dark in photos, please ignore this, it's just the way the light hits. These stones sparkle! My photos are high res, so when you enlarge them you will see the fun details.
This vintage cardigan is softest Orlon, made popular because it was made to feel like cashmere. It has rhinestones, pearls, appliques but no beading. This has the usual styling with bracelet length sleeves and crew neck. Some of the appliques look like they may have once been pink. One button missing at very bottom. Sweet Lolita would have worn this as a tight buttoned up top. (as did most 50s "Bad Girls) but it was styled quite differently here. Slight irregularity inside of elbow of one sleeve (shown). Pilling removed, check close ups. ON SALE? It could be. Private sales are done here from time to time so look for a dark pink sale banner with a discount code (percentage off) on any of my shop pages. Individual items do not show sale prices during private (non-site-wide) sales.
