Vintage late 1980s satin polyester blouse. Features tiny dots in bright green throughout the fabric. Smocked bottom opening means you pull this on over your head, although front center buttons are present and hide under the placket. Minimal pointy collar, cabochon button at the throat. Applied lace at the bib area for interest and femininity. Features extra puffy shoulder pads which can be removed. Wide, bracelet length sleeves end in single button cuffs. This piece can easily be tucked into your skirts and slacks or left out for blouson styling. Perfect for the upcoming spring season and even better, Saint Patrick's Day brunch! Fabric is a silky satin polyester, 100%. Easy care fabric means you can machine wash it and even dry it on low. Made by Andrea Gayle and tagged a size 16. My measurements indicate this would best fit sizes between a modern Large to Extra Large with a 46 inch bust, depending on desired fit. Please see full measurements and condition below!

The BEST way to determine fit is to compare these measurements to those of a garment that fits you perfectly! Any remarkable stretch will be noted in the listing, but I am ALWAYS here and happy to help...just message me and I will promptly respond!
