This lovely blouse is not true vintage – it is retro, having been made within the past 20 years by a small designer.  I strayed from my usual requirements when I saw it because it reflects so many of the qualities that I love in true vintage garments.

The design is elegant, unusual and reminiscent of fashions from the 1930’s, 1940’s and 1950’s.  The fabric is something like rayon – very pretty – and there are tailoring details which were done by hand.

I can definitely see wearing this with true vintage skirts, slacks and suits.  Those of you who collect and wear vintage like I do know that the closet door is always open for more great shirts and blouses.
