Item type Top Size FR36 / S Accession CEL100186 Design house Céline Designer Phoebe Philo (British, 1973–) Collection Spring/Summer 2015 Material Silk cady, woven silk mesh Place of origin France

Shown in Céline’s Spring/Summer 2015 runway show, this piece takes after the familiar crew-neck tee, elevating it through material and ornament.
Made in fluid silk cady for a smooth hand feel, the top is cut to a loose, relaxed fit. Bands of light silk mesh on the front extend toward the sides where they hang freely.
This detail is reminiscent of Madeleine Vionnet’s work from the 1920s, particularly a chiton dress with similar suspended side panels.

Very good
This piece remains in very good wearable condition and retains an unworn feel, with only faint marks at the collar, yoke and bottom band applique.
The evaluated condition describes only the piece itself, and not any inclusions that may come with it, such as dust bags and boxes. Learn more about grading here.
