1970s Mexicana Ruffle Blouse
Original 1970s blouse from Mexicana, the boutique founded by John Cavanagh and illustrator Alfredo Bouret. Known for bold, dramatic designs, the brand often incorporated elements inspired by Bouret’s Mexican heritage. A collectable and rare label to find these days.
Made from crisp white cotton, this blouse features structured ruffles along the front, long sleeves, and statement cuffs. Pin-tucking and pleats are detailed throughout, and the front fastens with hidden buttons, with matching buttons at the cuffs.
Condition: Very good. Light general wear to the cotton
