Vintage Matthew Williamson Romantic Poet Blouse Black Lace Size 8 Small

Romantic Poet Blouse with textured lace fabric in a delicate black shade. Vertical panels of intricate, geometric eyelet lace run down the center and sides of the torso. The garment is defined by its vibrant, dimensional embroidery, showcasing a floral vine motif in bright magenta, bubblegum pink, and emerald green, with cording outlining the shapes. The embroidery frames the chest and cascades heavily down the sleeves. Designed with a flowy fit, the blouse is completed by a gathered neckline and billowing three-quarter peasant sleeves that cinch into ruffled cuffs.
