Description
This Victorian wine-colored cotton shirt carries the spirit of a bygone era, crafted much like the garments worn by those who prized both function and form. The Picadilly Blouse features a pleated and laced front bib, a design that echoes the careful handiwork of seamstresses who balanced practicality with style. Its high-laced collar stands firm, framed by a fine black ribbon that weaves delicately around the neck, culminating in a small black bow tie at the front,details reminiscent of the refined dress codes of Victorian society. The short sleeves are gathered with elastic to offer ease of movement, while two buttons at the rear of the collar secure the fit, much like the fastenings found on period attire.
Fun fact: The Picadilly style blouse draws its name from London’s Piccadilly Circus, a bustling hub of fashion and culture where such collars and bows were once a common sight among the city’s fashionable crowds.
