Using “clothing clip” tends to bring up the most views via google since it is a lovely clip you have there for several option usages. Good luck

I think that it is a sweater clip. Just google “vintage sweater clips” and you will see all kinds. I’ve seen them used on the back of jackets to make them fit tighter at the waist.

We always called them ‘Sweater Guards’ back in the day. They held the two sides of your sweater together at the neck.

And sometimes they are used at the back of a dress at the waist-line to make it snugger. I don’t know their correct name either. Yours sure is pretty.

They are sweater clips, but clothing clips covers it all (as Montrose said) because a lot of people (including me) use them on scarves :)
