Retro button-up top is inspired by an old knitted top I found at a flea market. I imagine tops like this had their heyday around the 70s, and were at festival after festival all summer long. So let's give it another long summer! The top is knitted back and forth, bottom to top. It is short in the model, and can be worn with high jeans and skirts, or over a summer dress.
Size guide :
A summer top with straps will feel looser than the above measurements suggest. You can therefore choose a size that is about 0-5 cm smaller (negative ease) than your upper girth measurement.
It is the garment's measurements that are described above.
