Fiction Top

I hope this top feels like time spent slowly in the warmth of a home garden. **Sizing:** Garment Bust Measurement: 32, (36, 40, 44, 48, 52) [56, 60, 64, 68"]in / 80, (90, 100, 110, 120, 130) [140, 150, 160, 170] cm The photographed sample has 2” (5 cm) of ease in the cropped length and is shown on a 5'8" model with a 17" center front to natural waist measurement.
