This stunning original handmade blouse from the 1940s is a true vintage treasure. Crafted in a lightweight woven check fabric in cream, turquoise, and brown, it features strong wartime-era tailoring with a fitted waist, puffed shoulders, and long sleeves for that iconic 40s silhouette.
The blouse fastens with fabric-covered buttons and has a wide pointed collar – a classic detail of the period. Beautifully constructed and still in excellent condition, this piece carries the elegance and practicality of its time.
