Tops/shirts: Part 2 of my clearout

Same gubbins as my last post



Black lace and velvet lace-up goth top. Stunning! Bought from the Black Rose when it was in Kensington Market about 8 years ago. Just too small for me now, and has been for a while :-( . Very good quality velvet and lace, I can't see any signs of wear on the material at all (no loose threads of lace or flattening/rubbing on velvet).
2cm (less than 1") of the stitching directly under the left armpit where the 2 materials meet has come slightly loose. This doesn't show at all when on, but shouldn't be too hard to fix either.
One of the studs that the lacing goes through is missing. This only shows when you look hard, and doesn't affect it's wear-ability. This too shouldn't be too hard to fix either.
I've replaced the original lacing with red ribbon. I don't have the original lacing, but I think the ribbon works really well.
This top has been worn and loved, but still has PLENTY of wear in it.
Bust when laced closed 36" (92cm) Hem/waist when closed 28" (71cm) Lacing can be loosened buy and inch or two depending on how much skin you want to show ;o)
£15
