Gold and Olive Tunic and Trouser Ensemble

Posted on

A friend suggested I give this Mid Century Modern style a try and I think it is a perfect addition to the Bellissima Couture repertoire.  An elegant but casual ensemble, the tunic top is sleeveless, with a boat neck.  The fabric is a vintage metallic brocade in shades of gold and silver.  A hand beaded collar in metallic beads adds interest to the neckline.  Slim fitting trousers in olive gold silk complete the ensemble.

This fashion will fit Silkstone Barbie, Victoire Roux, FR2 dolls.
