Weekend Doll Gene Shirt in Petrol Blue – 1940s-Inspired Style
Gene by Weekend Doll is an elegant petrol blue shirt with authentic 1940s-inspired details. The deep shade beautifully complements its classic lapel collar and mother-of-pearl buttons down the front. A versatile choice for work, everyday wear and dinner out.
The lapel collar falls neatly towards the shoulders, while the long sleeves feature a gentle puff at the shoulder. The sleeves have a slimmer silhouette than traditional bishop sleeves, with shaping at the cuffs and small cuff buttons completing the feminine vintage look.
Gathers across the bust and a back pleat allow room for your curves and create a beautiful drape. Gene has a fitted cut and a length that works well tucked into high-waisted trousers and skirts to emphasise the waist. Made from 100% viscose, the fabric drapes beautifully and complements the shirt’s elegant silhouette.
Style your petrol blue Gene shirt with classic swing trousers or an A-line skirt. Add colourful accessories for a personal touch, or let the rich colour take centre stage.

Mondo Kaos guide
Why we love Gene long sleeve shirt in Petrol
The details
Bust gathers and a back pleat allow room for your curves, while the fitted cut defines the waist.
Styling options
Pair it with swing trousers for work or an A-line skirt for dinner. Finish the look with your favourite accessories.
Styling tip
Shirts and blouses work especially well with high-waisted bottoms because they can be styled into the waist and create a flattering silhouette.
Era inspiration
Inspired by the simple and functional silhouettes of the 1940s, with clean lines and a feminine everyday feel.
Find the right vintage-inspired top or shirt
Our vintage-inspired tops, blouses and shirts feature feminine fits that accentuate the waist and pair perfectly with high-waisted trousers and skirts. The styles are primarily inspired by 1940s, 1950s and 1960s fashion, when puff sleeves, elegant collars, tie-neck details, flattering necklines and fitted silhouettes were among the era’s characteristic features.
We always recommend checking the bust and waist measurements for each individual style rather than simply choosing your usual size. Some vintage-inspired shirts are made from non-stretch fabrics and have a looser fit, while other tops contain stretch and fit closer to the body. Choose the vintage-inspired top or retro shirt that suits the look you want – from a relaxed everyday outfit to classic 1940s style, feminine 1950s fashion or a colourful 1960s look.
