Size 6 1940s Peasant Blouse - Fresh White Cotton Short Sleeved Top with Daisy Eyelet Embroidery - 40s Spring Summer Sheer Shirt - Bust 34

$ 59.99

1940s fine white cotton blouse with eyelet daisy embroidery in a charming peasant style, so sweet for summer. This authentic 40s puff sleeved top has a collarless neckline and classic tailoring, with gathers over the bust and shoulders. It has an antique appeal, something similar to a Victorian look. Definitely sheer, so pretty with a camisole or slip underneath.
