1970s 'Tony Burgess' Embroidered Folk Blouse
These Hungarian-style blouses are a vintage classic for a reason—just gorgeous! This lovely little 70s version has puffed sleeves and pretty floral embroidery, and comes from 'Tony Burgess'. It features a floral motif on the sleeves and at the yoke, pastel blue shade zigzag stitching, and smocking at the collar and cuffs. It has been made from 100% cotton, and has been dyed a pastel pink colour. I believe this was dyed by a former owner to cover up some discolouration, so please look at the condition report for more on this. It is pulled over the head to wear, and fastens at the neck with a little blue ribbon.
Condition: It is in great shape aside from some discolouration under the arms as well as on the inner labels. The pink dye is even, well done, and contrasts beautifully with the blue. Some light bobbling and wear to the cotton.
