The Polaire Tunic is inspired by the straight 1920’s silhouettes, updated with some waist shaping. Knit in a drapey sport-weight yarn, this cool spring top adds just a hint of femininity with scalloped lace at the hem and armholes. Eyelet trim finishes the modified V-neck, flattering on so many figures. Perfect as a light spring top or for a holiday party.
