This casual slipover tee features a split neck and modified drop shoulders. A simple lace pattern is used to create a laid–back summer vibe, perfect for outings or pool days. Salt Meadow is named for the sweet grass plants that thrive in the low country of Charleston, South Carolina. The lace pattern brings to mind the graceful movement of the reeds in the wind and the single chain trims keep the piece grounded.
