Hussein Chalayan linen batwing top, M/40

Title: Hussein Chalayan linen batwing top

Description:

Just in time for summer, one of the summeriest tops ever! A linen/cotten blend, while with embroidered green, purple and blue stripes.

Like lots of Chalayan's pieces, this top metamorphizes. If you don't do up the shoulder snaps, it's a flowy batwing top. If you do, it has a more standard, sleeveless fit.

Size: 40 (fits like a M)

Details: Made in Italy; 88% linen and 12% cotton; Hand wash only

One of the buttons reads, "this item can be considered as a piece of future archaeology, a container of information contemporary to its making".

Condition: Like new; I've worn it maybe 5 times

Price: I got it on sale for around $175; I'll ship it anywhere in the U.S. for $85.
