1930s Cream Lace and Tulle Blouse with Crochet Buttons

About the Item

A stunning example of its kind, this cream blouse was handmade in the 1930s or conceivably earlier. Crafted from delicate pale cream lace and detailed with stripes of tulle net, it has pretty scallop hems along the Peter Pan collar and short-sleeves. The front fastens with tiny spherical crochet buttons threaded through fabric loops which add lovely detail. Tailored to a slightly cropped length, this beautiful top has an elasticated peplum waistband. Unlabelled, the blouse in fantastic vintage condition, particularly for a piece likely to be close to a century in age. I cannot find a fault with it and suggest a best fit for a UK 8, US 4. MEASUREMENTS Bust - 32 in. (81 cm) Waist - 26 in. (66 cm) Length- 17 in. (43 cm)

1970s Biba Black Iridescent Sequin Halter-Neck Top
By Biba
Located in London, GB
This early and collectable 1970s Biba sequin top is presented in superb vintage condition. This halter-neck top is tight fitting with a stretch finish allowing for a flexible fit. Sequins are sewn directly onto a stretch cloth created from weaving elastic into a wool knit. There are no fastenings or lapels so this piece simply pops over the head. The sequins are black and iridescent and therefore shine with a rainbow assortment of hues when they catch the light. This disco-ready top is unlined. This piece is just as wearable today as it was over 50 years ago. This dark gold fabric label was the second Biba label and only in use from 1970 to 1972. All original vintage Biba...
