Hello and Welcome to the Textile Trunk! Please follow us on Instagram, we are @textiletrunk ~**~
I love the shape of this blouse! It seems to me like a dinner jacket worn by a woman, just as an over layer. This piece dates to the 1950s, and it feels to me like rayon, possibly mixed with cotton or something else, but it's primarily rayon. There is a fantastic button detail at the front which is purely decorative, and it has snaps behind it for closure. There are faux pocket flaps on the front. This is a lovely piece with a great silhouette, and it would be perfect for wear or used as design inspiration!

CONDITION : This bodice is in as found, not freshly laundered condition. This piece is in lovely condition indeed! A few holes in the lining here and there, and some signs of wear. All in all, this textile is in lovely vintage condition, but not without signs of time and use often inherent in these amazing textiles.
