This stunning blouse was made in the late 1930s / early 1940s from rayon with an abstract floral pattern in a beautiful autumnal palette of greens, browns, yellow and rust orange. It was cut in the classic silhouette of the period with gathered peaked shoulders and a nipped waist. The sharp pleated collar is actually stitched down and creates a flattering V neckline. The blouse fastens with ten fabric covered buttons and loops at the front. 

Bust: 35” (tight 36”)

Waist: 28”

Shoulders: 12 1/2” seam to seam

Length: 18”

 

The blouse is in very good condition with only some slight underarm fade, a few minor flaws and a small seam split as pictured. There is also some subsequently added overlocking to stabilise the inside seams.

This garment is available to purchase with or without dress shields. These clever little contraptions have been made by our seamstress to an original 1940s pattern and can be simply attached to your garment by tack stitching at the corners of the underarm seam, pinning (we wouldn’t recommend that, it hurts if it goes wrong, so if you try this, it is at your own risk only) or inserting tiny poppers. They then stand ready to absorb any sweat and body odours as needed and you can simply detach and launder them instead of your garment, saving you a fortune in dry cleaning bills.

 

They are equally suitable for suits, blazers and dresses and come in pure white cotton.

 

They are universally sized and super easy to use even for a sewing novice as only a couple of tiny stitches are required at each side to secure them.

 

We sell Dress Shields as a standalone item or at a discount if you purchase them with a garment. We will select the appropriate type to match the garment you have purchased.
