One-of-a-Kind Upcycled Ivory Quilted Peplum Top with Ornate Metal Accents

A romantic reimagining of classic femininity, this one-of-a-kind upcycled top was thoughtfully designed and handcrafted with an appreciation for historical silhouettes and intricate detail.

Featuring richly textured ivory quilting, a softly scalloped sweetheart neckline, and delicate ruffled shoulder straps, the fitted bodice gives way to a sculptural, flared peplum reminiscent of historical corsetry. Ornate antique-brass-tone metal embellishments accent the neckline and waist, lending an old-world elegance to its contemporary design.

Personally reconstructed by the founder of Archive Mercantile, this piece celebrates the beauty of giving existing textiles new life. Its distinctive silhouette and thoughtful details make it equally suited to romantic everyday styling or a more dramatic, statement-making ensemble.
