🍷Vintage pure silk claret red blouse w/feminine details

Outstanding color. Claret was a hot color on the catwalks preluding the Fall 2024 fashion season. It is a burgundy with a bit of pink in it. Vintage from 1990's. The epitome of a feminine blouse. Very romantic feel. Loose fit w/an elastic at the waist & an attached culotte 2 ensure the bouffant. I never did attach the culotte as my torso had the perfect length to keep the bouffant of the blouse without the help of the attachment. Despite being vintage, the comfy elastic is very much "alive & well” . It Is a clever way to ensures an even distribution of the fabric around the waist whilst keeping the bouffant. The result is outstanding as per pictures. Sleeves are large and brought together towards the end with a loose elastic. Hue will vary with light. It is definitively a burgundy red. The picture with the necklace floating red beads (not included) shows you better the hue of the blouse compared to the true Xmas red of the necklace. The true hue is closer to the featured collage. The light catches the shine of the silk in the blouse and gives it movement and life. Washable: see picture of label 4 care.
