ARCHIVES > COSSACK VEST

Sleeveless vest, covered in many textiles and images that imply a Cossack identity -- people dancing, felt applique of jug wine vessel, rich colors and textures. Fake fur lines the neck and armholes, beaded fringe dangles from the yokes, appliques of a globe and a book adorn the front. Adjustable waist, thanks to the small tabs at the bottom. Delicate gold silk dresses up the back yoke, while two layers of multi-colored silks enhance the front yokes. Size medium, or "one size fits most." $100 shipped free within the U.S.
