Italian Vintage Stars-and-Stripes Nautical Knit
Italian Vintage Stars-and-Stripes Nautical Knit
Made-in-Italy meets All American in this iconic stars and stripes knit, which belongs on a boat somewhere. It features a classic bateau neckline with button details, and a relaxed fit, with dropped shoulders and armholes that become more witted towards the waist to keep it flattering. The star appliqué is on a separate piece of knit. It was made in Italy, of a lightweight, high quality Italian wool blend.

Good vintage condition, with minor wear commensurate with age. The original retail tags are still attached so it was never worn, but there are some tiny spots of discoloration which are not noticeable when worn. There were some repairs made to the knit in places, and one small snag near the hem. With any questions about the specific condition or size, please email shop@verybreezy.com for additional photos or measurements, as all sales are final.
