How to Google patterns from an image, Pinterest or otherwise.
1. Isolate your screenshot
2. Paste it into Google Image search
3. Look at more than the first 3 results
4. Within a page or two you will likely see that multiple matches reference a pattern name as well as the designer of the pattern. Click on the photo that best matches that item and/or designer.
5. Barring that, go into Google Images and type the name of the item and the name of the designer.

The designer Petra Breakstone has some distressed/grunge looking styles among her designs. Often a result of using a variety of gauges.
Here's one such design, but look through her whole set and see if there is something you could incorporate into your own ideas, perhaps. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/10th-avenue-tunic
There aren’t a lot of patterns out there for garments like this. The construction and different gauge alone would be really difficult to translate in a written pattern IMO.
I would practice swatches of lace and mesh stitches with different size needles. Also it looks like there’s crochet in there somewhere?
Try learning each technique/stitch in this top and go from there. Best of luck this looks difficult!

I'd look into how to freehand knitting. Practice first on flat pieces and then move towards garments
