A new take on our very popular shirt blouse - this time with authentic bishops sleeves and a less oversize fit!
A most becoming and feminine blouse - yet an eternally practical addition to any vintage gal's wardrobe.
This 40s inspired blouse would have been a mainstay item during the 40s and looks great with our Swing Trousers and 40s 'Whirlaway' Skirt. This blouse has been made in another specially sourced rayon crepe - feels really vintage and is a very high quality fabric.
A special new feature on this blouse is the stunning replica vintage buttons - they look just like bakelite!
Key features include:-
- iconic gathers into shoulder yoke at front and back
- neckline on this style is faithful to the original garment styles
- vintage replica buttons
- long bishops sleeves with cuff and movable button to fit wrist
*NB: For those who already have the short-sleeved version of this product - this blouse has been resized to be a closer fit following customer feedback. Please choose your regular size if you have previously sized down.
