Vintage Sizing note:
Because of the differences in the letter or number sizing of vintage clothes, where a vintage Small or Medium is much smaller based on measurements than a modern item, I recommend comparing the measurements of this blouse to a garment you own. I am listing this blouse as a modern size Small although based on measurements like the chest size of 37 inches, it falls somewhere between a modern Small and Medium.
Vintage Mid-Century Sweetheart Blouse
A darling 1950s/60s blouse by Penny Lou with a \"bib\" style design of red scalloped embroidery and delicate accent bows on the front. Designed with a classic high neckline and a full button-back closure.
The fabric has a beautiful subtle sheen and a lightweight, slightly sheer texture—perfect for pairing with a high-waisted swing skirt or cigarette pants for a classic Rockabilly or Pin-up look.
Product Details
Brand: A Penny Lou Original
Era: 1950s - early 1960s
Color: Bright White with Red Embroidery
Features: Back-button closure with original pearlized buttons, 3/4 length sleeves, front darts for a tailored fit, and scalloped \"necklace\" embroidery with tiny bows.
Condition: Excellent vintage condition. There is slight yellowing at the seams, most prominently at the shoulders, which appears to me to be the thread more than the fabric so perhaps this was an intentional contrast stitch or the thread\'s discoloraton. There are detail photos of the outside and inside of the seams for context. The brand tag is unattached at the bottom. There is minor surface wear. No major flaws, holes or damage were noted.
