I can’t deny that this is one of my favourite finds…and a very rare one (and very hard to sell when I really want to keep it!!)
French Edwardian…made from a wonderful quality hand woven cotton
There is so much detailing to this piece that it’s probably best to pour over the photos…but I’ll try and describe everything here!
A beautiful oversized ruffle collar with broidery anglaise edging, which also runs down the centre of the blouse (either side of the button placard) and finishes the cuffs off too! (Insane amounts of work!)
Pintuck detailing either side of the centre front, with added embroidery in the centre of this!!
Every stitch…no matter how small…has been sewn by hand. It’s phenomenal!
It’s in unbelievable condition and is over 110 years old!! Crazy!
This is testament to the quality of workmanship and fabric that was commonplace in Edwardian times, and sorely missing in modern high street clothing. (Don’t get me started!! But this is one of the many reasons why I only buy vintage!!)
Armpit-Armpit 21”
Shoulders (seam-seam) 16.5”
Length 22.5”
Approx Medium
Only has 2 buttons the one at the collar is missing…but easily rectified if you feel it needs it.
NB: all vintage pieces are non-refundable (exchange/credit note only)
