Unique antique Victorian silk blouse, made from a lovely black silk with a small white triangle/dot print. The front placket and cuffs are overlayed with beige lace. The front has pleats at the shoulders that frame the bust and the back. There is a little peplum at the waist and the top closes with hooks and eyes along the left front and at the neck.
COLOR: Black, Beige
MATERIAL: Silk, Cotton
LABEL: None
CONDITION: Overall wearable, but there is a hole in the lace on the placket, and a small hole in the silk on the front left pleat next to the lace. There is also a very tiny hole on the left sleeve. There is a bit of stress of the fabric on the elbow of the left sleeve, and a bit of wear on the silk at the back neck dart. The hem on the right side is raw so it's frayed and uneven from the left side.
