Tiger Stripe Shirt Appraisal

Red Long-Sleeve T-Shirt with Gold Tiger Stripe Embellishment

This is a vibrant red, long-sleeve, crew-neck t-shirt featuring an intricate gold embellishment on the front. The embellishment appears to be composed of numerous small, circular gold studs or rhinestones, arranged to create a distinct tiger stripe pattern across the chest and extending partially over the left shoulder. The pattern covers a significant portion of the front bodice, with sections of solid red fabric defining the negative space creating the stripes. The shirt itself appears to be made from a relatively thin, soft, and stretchy knit fabric, common for t-shirts. The color is a saturated, bright red. There are no readily apparent manufacturer's marks or tags visible beyond a small, yellow-ish label sewn into the back neckline, which is partially obscured but seems to contain text. The construction appears to be standard for a casual garment, with visible stitching on the seams, particularly around the neckline and cuffs. The item shows some minor creasing from storage or wear, and the fabric near the bottom hem appears slightly stretched or gathered. There are no significant visible damages or missing embellishments that can be conclusively identified from the provided image, though a closer inspection would be required to confirm the integrity of all attached studs. The style suggests a casual or contemporary aesthetic, possibly from the late 20th or early 21st century, given the use of such embellishments. The craftsmanship of the embellishment, while seemingly machine-applied, appears consistent and uniform across the pattern.
