The Seamstress of Bloomsbury Jay Blouse
From my own closet, worn once, this is a vintage replica of a 1940s shirt with amazing bishop sleeves and gathered under the bust which gives it rich detail and a feminine touch. Photo does not do it justice. A thousand and one ways to style this and I can't wait to see what you come up with.
