Vintage 1970s stars and stripes long sleeved top by 'Truth and Soul' (there is a fabulous graphic sun, moon & stars label!).
While the American flag is traditionally a symbol of patriotism and national unity, in the 1970s hippies re-appropriated it, using it to express their own values of peace, love and freedom.This use of the flag was part of a broader cultural movement where hippies challenged traditional values and societal norms.It was a way to express their rejection of the Vietnam War and other aspects of mainstream American culture.
We love the angular deep neckline and unusual reinterpretation of the stars and stripes in a pink colourway! A super special top.

Note: there is fraying to the label, wear to the white ink in the stars, a few small tears. These things add to the true vintage charm!
