This Edwardian blouse, fashioned from sheer cotton voile, is beautifully trimmed with raised embroidery, faggoted seams, lace, and decorative crocheted balls. I love the sailor collar.
The style is more comfortable and easier to wear than many Edwardian pieces because the neckline is open, and the armholes are dropped below the shoulder.
The condition is excellent. The blouse just needs a good soak to freshen it after years of storage.
It measures: 40" bust, 28" waist, and 17" center-back length from the neckline to the hem (longer in front).
