LOVE this new find!  True vintage sweaters are so rare and this one is in very good condition.  In a color that I can wear well (+++!) I’ll enjoy it for years.  The fit is very fetching, in the popular Fifties style, enhancing not only the bust-line but also the waist, too.  The sleeves fit well and it has a small basket-weave knit pattern.  What could be better?!

Cute sweaters are made now, but nothing fits better than a vintage knit – especially from eras when there was a strong sense of body-conscious fit and the 1950’s was certainly one of them.  I love the va-va-voom disguise as much as anyone so – here goes . . . . . . . . . . .
