Ultra cropped bolero style blouse with big pleated puff sleeves made of a dusty lavender satin. From the 1940s, originally part of a custom made wedding ensemble with multiple layers for dramatic reveals throughout the night. The collar is pleated and wraps into the side seam. The blouse is dramatically cropped in the front with just shoulder pads, collar and sleeves! The back has more coverage, and is secured to the waist with a bow trimmed belt. There is a second detachable bow belt, and a third belt attached at the bust. Very interesting and unique custom piece!
Excellent condition overall with some fading and tiny discolored marks.
