A beautiful handmade 1970s blouse, crafted from lightweight cream cotton and covered in an intricate all-over floral print in soft blue and slate tones.
The blouse features a classic dog-ear collar and button-through front, with gently gathered bishop sleeves that narrow into neat buttoned cuffs. The slightly flared body gives it an easy, relaxed 70s silhouette.
The handmade construction is particularly lovely, with the individual details and finish giving the blouse a charm you simply don’t get with mass-produced vintage pieces. The delicate blue floral print has an almost folk or Delft-inspired quality against the warm cream ground.

Condition: Good vintage condition. As a handmade vintage piece, there are small variations in the construction and finish. Minor signs of age and previous wear are present, consistent with its age. One missing button as photographed.
Why We Love It: The fact that this was made by hand makes it feel particularly special. We love the beautiful sleeve shape and folk-inspired floral print - the kind of blouse that looks just as good with faded jeans and trainers as it would with a mini skirt.
