Vintage 1990s Purple Grey Tie Neck Blouse – Contrast Stitch Fitted Shirt

Vintage 1990s Purple Grey Tie Neck Blouse UK 6 8 Long Sleeve Contrast Stitch Fitted Shirt

Description

A beautifully understated vintage blouse in an unusual muted purple-grey shade.

The blouse has a narrow stand collar with long integral ties that can be worn loosely, knotted at the neck or tied into a small bow. Contrasting pale topstitching highlights the shoulders, collar, front opening, chest pocket and cuffs, giving the blouse a distinctive tailored finish.

The long sleeves end in neat buttoned cuffs, while a single patch pocket sits at the chest. Its shorter length and narrow proportions create a slim, fitted silhouette that works beautifully with high-waisted trousers and skirts.

A versatile piece with minimalist late-1990s styling and subtle utility-inspired detailing.
