We keep low stock levels on site so sometimes our manufacturer will complete your garment only once you order, and that can take a week or so. If you are in a rush, please order and let us know when you need it. We’ll do our best.
Sweet blooms of beige, brown and green are sprinkled over ivory in this gorgeous simple print. We aren’t sure a flower like this exists, but it does remind us of small blooms you’d find on unassuming shrubs that dazzle and delight with their beautiful scent.
We've named the Martha blouse after Shona's great grandmother, a real adventurer, who followed her children out to New Zealand after her husband retired. Now that is some trip to make later in life. We think the Martha set is all about adventuring, even if it is a bit more urban than a pilgrimage on a sailing ship
This style of blouse, with the strong pointed collar and darted shoulders shows up in sewing patterns from 1941 - 1946. The collar itself lived on a little longer, still appearing at the start of the New Look era.
