The feminine top
Shirts and blouses are perfect for creating a vintage-inspired look because they are easy to style into the waist.
Shawl blouse
light blue
Shirt blouse in powder blue with vintage style "sailor collar" from The House of Foxy.
A lovely and light summer top inspired by the elegant fashion of the 1930s.
The top features a beautiful open neckline in a soft V shape, framed by the lovely scarf collar, which ties easily at the front of the chest.
The short sleeves have a bit of gathering at the shoulders for extra volume and reach about mid-forearm.
The top has darts at the bust but otherwise has an elegant straight cut, designed to be worn tucked into the bottom for a beautiful blousy look.
- The top has both a maritime flair as well as an authentic 1930s look.
- Wear it with beautiful high-waisted shorts or trousers.
- Jeanette (first 2 pictures) is wearing the blouse in size large, which is her normal size. Simone (updo) is wearing the blouse in size medium.
Material: 100% rayon crepe

Why we love Shawl blouse in light blue
The details
Collars, buttons, sleeves or prints can make all the difference and give the look more personality.
Styling options
Wear it with high-waisted jeans, trousers or a skirt. Button it up for a classic look or tie it at the waist for a more relaxed retro feel.
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.
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.
