Description:

Item:
Original 1970s polyester and cotton blend blouse in a bold red, yellow and navy check pattern. Classic button-front design with long sleeves, button cuffs and a pointed collar. Cut with a straight, easy shape through the body, giving it a clean everyday silhouette with strong period colour and pattern. The polyester and cotton blend fabric is typical of the era, combining colour retention and durability with a lighter, more breathable handle.

Era:
1970s

Brand:
Unknown

Condition:
Very good vintage condition, with light wear consistent with age and use.

Provenance Note:
A bright and highly wearable 1970s blouse with excellent colour balance and a strong checked pattern. The red, yellow and navy palette gives it real visual impact, while the simple button-front cut keeps it practical and easy to style. It sits naturally with denim, cords, skirts or layered under knitwear, making it a useful period piece with plenty of everyday appeal.

Condition Notes:

Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected. Any notable marks, damage, or repairs will always be clearly mentioned. This natural wear is part of what gives genuine vintage its individuality and authenticity. True vintage should not be confused with modern second-hand clothing

We photograph all garments using a professional, studio-grade imaging system designed to show colour, texture, and shape as accurately as possible. This setup was built specifically to give a true representation of each piece and avoid misleading presentation; however, we do not take photos of inside the garment. While we take great care in inspecting every piece, with true vintage it is always possible that a minor detail may be missed.

Sizing Notes:

Please compare these measurements to a similar item you already own, laid flat (rather than measuring your body). Start with the bust measurement, then check length. Vintage sizing runs small and cuts vary significantly from modern equivalents, so the measurements listed are the best guide to fit.

Our modern sizing estimates are based on bust measurements using the following sizing scale:

UK 6 (30–31")

UK 8 (32–33")

UK 10 (34–35")

UK 12 (36–37")

UK 14 (38–39")

UK 16 (40–41")

UK 18 (42–43")

UK 20 (44–45")

For jackets, knitwear, sweaters, and padded outerwear, we grade one size down to allow for structure, lining, bulk.or layering.
