Black & white vintage silk blouse with scarf collar design (made in Korea)

From early 1990's. You can « play » with silk to make different looks as it is soft & drapes well. Can be worn cropped, tucked / or outside-in full or in part. Also ideal for layering The blouse shows the quality of workmanship & fabric of its high-end label: Mr Jax. Collar is unique (see pictures, you could also make it as a tailored collar if you do not attach the ends to the buttons). Closes at the front with black buttons hidden under a flap to maintain the “hallucinatory “ effect of the zigzags. The white zigzags are intertwined with the black and they have intermittent groups of parallel glossy lines (see close up picture) Body is not tailored End of long sleeves w/ French cuff cut. Hues vary with light. The white is more like shell white (slight cream in it) You are buying a well loved vintage item so it is not perfect & price takes into doubt the flaws. For ex.,the side of one sleeve has its integrity damaged (I only saw it when I pressed the shirt before listing, the material is frayed but there is no hole and it is about the size of « a zig from one zigzag!» plus there are few running fine strings. Labeled as size 12 but this label typically made garments bigger than average chart so please look at the following measurements-in inches when flat and approximate: Shoulders:18 Pit to pit: 21 Length: 25 Care: handwash in cold water. Knackmixing idea: the black & white light fabric boa, listed separately, would add extra zest
