Beautiful early 1950s made from white rayon and featuring delicate hand-embroidered birds, flowers and leafy branches in soft shades of blue, pink, yellow, green and warm brown.
The blouse has a wonderfully feminine silhouette, with scalloped cap sleeves and a softly scalloped collar, both finished with contrasting blue embroidery. The fitted waist gives it that characteristic and flattering early 1950s shape, while the small colourful bird motifs add a charming, slightly whimsical touch.
Button-front fastening with small translucent buttons. Unlined and lightweight, perfect for spring and summer. No maker’s label present.
A particularly lovely example of 1950s novelty embroidery, combining a simple white rayon base with beautifully executed colourful details
