This top is stunning for a petite woman (size 2 or 4 petite). It’s an elegant beaded (with slight shimmer to the beading) sheer fabric with a silky second layer underneath so that it does not look sheer when it is worn. Was stored in pet free, smoke free, clean environment and is like new. One of the photos is a closeup which shows the beading detail. The photos do not show how incredibly beautiful this top is - it is very flattering and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. It is 100 percent silk and can be hand washed or dry cleaned.
