patchwork fitted peplum vest or top

This patchwork top or vest is pure fun! Each piece has been meticulously chosen for shape, color and texture, like putting a complex puzzle together, resulting in an organic final piece that can be worn with just about anything, and underneath other jackets as well. Fitted through the waist, with extra chest allowance, it has a slightly flared bottom which would make it perfect for a very fitted hip-hugging look as well (please indicate the sizing requirements with the order for optimal closure placement). Features two staggered pockets in the front and one in back. You can bring out any of the colors included in this top with a different tank or shirt underneath, many options available. Light to medium weight. Incorporates vintage fabrics and some recycled pockets. Product code: M3453

Hand wash.

All garments arrive to you freshly cleaned, unlike regular store-bought items, and are ready to wear.

Dry-cleaning is ok on most items but only if gentle methods are used and the cleaners are familiar with cleaning hand-painted delicate fabrics.

To freshen up any item that doesn’t need deep cleaning simply mist it with a water spray and put in the dryer on medium heat for about 15 min.

All garments can be hand washed. Wash each item separately, cold water only, minimal amount of detergent, and as briefly as possible, no soaking. The wash can be followed by a spin in the washer and dried on medium heat until dry. Knits should be hung-dried and when dry, finished in the dryer for a few minutes to soften.

Hand-pressing may be necessary after the wash and dry to straighten out the seams and edges which tend to pucker or curl on natural fabrics.

Some hand-dyed items may leak a bit of color during the washing, that is normal and will not affect the item. Using liquid softener during the wash will minimize any color leaking.

For more tips and details please refer to the cleaning instructions card included with your package.
