a high-character, beautifully textured piece for the archival Y2K rotation. this vintage Express sleeveless top is crafted from an airy, leaf-green crinkle chiffon layer over a smooth satin lining. the romantic silhouette is defined by an empire waist with a fixed bow accent, a jeweled green-and-black rhinestone centerpiece, and a delicate faux-wrap V-neckline framed in braided satin trim. featuring intricate tonal floral embroidery throughout and a hidden side zipper, it perfectly bridges the gap between Y2K fairycore glam and whimsical indie sleaze aesthetics.
unisex sizing note: labeled a women's size Small (S). fits like a women's size 4/6 or a men's size XXS. based on the flat tape measurements showing a 32-33 inch chest (approx 16 inches flat across) and an empire waist band measuring roughly 29-30 inches (14.5-15 inches flat across), this piece provides a fitted silhouette through the ribs before opening to a flowy babydoll hem. please see tape measurements in images to confirm fit.
