Product Description
A standout 1980s Silk Scapes Hand Painted Silk Shoe Print Top with a vivid red body, black yoke and sleeves, and a bright novelty print featuring shoes, sunglasses, bows, buttons, and accessory motifs. The colors are saturated and playful: red, black, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, and white.
The shape is easy and clean, with a bateau-style neckline, short sleeves, side slits, and covered black buttons at the back shoulder. It has a polished art-to-wear feeling without being difficult to style. The shoe print gives it a fashion-insider wink, while the silk keeps it elevated.
The interior label reads “Silk Scapes Hand Painted Silks,” with a dry clean only tag and marked size Petite. This kind of hand-painted silk novelty piece fits especially well into the 1980s and early 1990s wearable-art market, where bold graphic tops and silk separates were often designed to feel expressive, colorful, and collectible.
Shown on Dominique, who is 5’9″ and typically wears a modern high-fashion size 2/4, with a 32B bust, 25″ waist, and 37″ hips. On Dominique, this has an easy, slightly boxy fit with a shorter length. Best for a modern XS/S depending on desired fit and measurements. Please compare measurements before purchasing.

Fit Notes
Marked size Petite. Shown on Dominique, who is 5’9″ and typically wears a modern high-fashion size 2/4, with a 32B bust, 25″ waist, and 37″ hips.
On Dominique, this fits easy through the body with a slightly boxy, cropped proportion. The shoulder and sleeve are relaxed rather than fitted, and the side slits give a little movement at the hem. Best for a modern XS/S, or potentially a closer fit on a small medium depending on measurements and preferred styling.
Please compare measurements to a similar silk top you already own.
Condition
Very good vintage condition with light wear consistent with age. No major flaws are visible in the provided photos. Light natural creasing is visible in the silk, typical of the fabric. Please review photos closely and confirm in person for any pulls, faint marks, underarm wear, or loose button stitching before publishing.
Styling Notes
Style with:
A black pencil skirt and pointed flats
High-rise jeans and a sharp blazer
White trousers and little black sandals
A mini skirt for a playful 1980s look
Tucked into tailored pants to let the shoe print read more polished
