Amazingly gorgeous mod angora wool sweater shell from the 1960s, hand-beaded and fully lined. A metal/nylon zipper runs up the back. Super soft slightly cropped knit top that would look lovely with capri pants or a skirt, or even shorts in the summer! Lovely iridescent sequins speckle the front and back, as pearlized beads dangle from white beaded flowers. Reminds me of the late style icon Jacqueline "Jackie-O" Kennedy Onassis. Perfect for the Holidays, great statement NYE top.
