A fantastic new blouse - with added finesse. We are simply thrilled with this new 1940s blouse and fans of authentic vintage will love all the 1940s details we have added.
We have not held on this beauty.
Wear the collar open or button up to the top, using the loop with the hidden covered button. This makes it super authentic. Sleeves are long and full with a slim cuff which fastens with 2 covered buttons. We've also added a small shoulder pad in the sleeve head - which again creates that iconic 1940s silhouette.
Since it is mainly designed to be tucked into natural/high waisted trousers or skirts, the 5 *shell buttons stop just above the waist. Beautiful tailored darts into the waist create a flatter blouson look.
Check out those pockets! Fabulous chevron shape pocket with feature fold. Whilst you wont be able to put a great deal of modern items in those pockets - they simply look darling and just scream 1940s.
Key features include:-
- wear collar open or closed to nape
- feature breast pockets
- iconic gathers into shoulder yoke at front and back
- neckline on this style is faithful to the original garment styles
- natural shell buttons
- long bishops sleeves with cuff and double covered button to fit wrist

I love the look, color and feel of the 40s sweetheart blouse. I had been looking fo a long-sleeved blouse with this classic shape and the detail darts. This one hits the mark! I plan to purchase it in other colors, too. Marvelous!
Yes! The color is exactly what I was hoping for. As Marie wrote in her review, the color is “a little more muted than in the pictures”. I would say it’s a lovely beige shade.. well, somewhere between beige and yellow. The color is an all-rounder and perfectly matches my burgundy, navy, light brown and dark green skirts.
Marie, thank you for your review, it helped a lot! :)
