Here I present a couple of designs with variations from a previous one I made a couple of years ago. “Ruth” and “Eleanor” are made in wool knit lace fabric with unusual large collar and triple decorative vintage buttons. The puff sleeves also feature buttons as do the waistband of the blouse. Hook and eye closure at the back.
“Alma” and “Edna” are bias cut cotton blouses, very popular in the 1930s, with short sleeves featuring geometric cuffs and a pair of vintage buttons. The collar has a central flap, secured by a vintage button, and the belt has a vintage bakelite buckle. Hook and eye closure at the back of the round collar. They also have a little side pocket with a button and darts down the front of the blouse.
“Violet” is a mid- 1930s style blouse in viscose rayon, in the same style as “Alma” and “Edna” but without the side pocket. The cuffs, collar flap and the little detail in the belt in light cream viscose create an interesting contrast to the burgundy of the blouse. Vintage buttons adorn the cuffs and collar flap. The belt also features a vintage buckle.
All available here.
