Poppy vintage style shirt blouse
Palace Blue
1940s style shirt with long sleeves in Palace Blue from Seamstress of Bloomsbury.
The lovely Poppy shirt features a notched collar, a flattering fitted fall, and long sleeves.
Poppy has long, slightly puffed sleeves with a classic cuff. The small authentic shoulder pads highlight the beautiful silhouette, and the slight gathering at the shoulder seam gives the lightweight fabric a lovely drape over the bust.
The shirt is lightly fitted, and together with the small shoulder pads, the blouse creates the iconic hourglass silhouette with full shoulders and a slim waist. It is made from Bloomsbury's soft and breathable signature fabric and fastens with beautiful vintage-style buttons.
The lovely color is Palace Blue, a beautiful sky blue, perfect for example with slacks and pencil skirts in brown shades.
- A lovely blouse inspired by an original 1940s pattern, that fits perfectly into your vintage-inspired wardrobe!
- Wear the blouse with high-waisted trousers or skirts to further emphasize the waist
- Available in several colors and patterns
100% rayon crepe. No stretch.
Rayon crepe is a natural, lightweight and beautiful material, and we recommend that you care for the garment as they did with original 1940s clothing.
We suggest hand washing, just like they did back then. If you want to use the easier option of using a washing machine, it's very important to wash on a gentle cycle and place the garment in a laundry bag. However, we do not recommend washing in a machine as not all machines treat clothes equally well.
Avoid drying clothes in direct sunlight or in very hot places (e.g. over a radiator) as this can cause the material to expand and subsequently shrink.
If the garment has been washed too hot.
In the unlikely event of an accident, you can try the following method to get the garment back to its original size and fit. This method is not guaranteed, but may help in some cases:
- Soak the garment in cold water with a very generous amount of fabric conditioner and leave it overnight.
- Then rinse the garment in fresh cold water and while gently squeezing out the excess water, stretch the garment both width and lengthwise as far as you can.
- Lay the garment flat on a towel to let it dry slowly and keep pulling it in both directions.
