The Edwardian Striped Blouse is inspired by ladies 1900s shirtwaists and is the perfect addition to your Edwardian costume. Made from stylish Italian shirt cotton this blouse is perfect day wear for historybounding, suffragettes, vintage inspired smart academic styling as adopted by the new working woman at the turn of the century.
The blouse features a high neckline with a yoke that plays flatteringly with the stripes. The lower bodice is gathered onto the yoke and onto the waistband. The waistband features a ribbon drawstring to cinch the blouse in snuggly to your waist and help with unruly untuckings. The blouse is designed to be worn tucked in to a high waisted skirt in the traditional style. The long sleeves are lightly pleated into the shoulder to give a pleasing fullness, but not over the top, along with a simple button fastening cuff. The blouse fastens down the front with vintage buttons selected to compliment the fabric colours.
The blouse looks great worn with any of our Edwardian skirts and jackets for a complete look, but could also be worn with any high waisted skirt or trousers.

The fabric is limited so I can only make so many before I run out! Please note 'summer blue' isn't exactly the same as the stripe worn by the model.
