Hand-embroidered neon pink altered vintage blouse - Yellow Tulip

Description

This shirt was amazing. The blinding brightness of the neon pink cannot be accurately represented on a monitor. However it was missing something...after adding a yellow tulip, it was complete.

The tulip is full coverage embroidery - I embroidered the tulip by hand, the stitches meaning to mimic the lines of filling in a drawing in a coloring book.

The shirt itself is circa the 1960s or 1970s. There is no label, tag or size on this shirt. As it fits my model who wears a small, I'll call it a small, however with these measurements it could be a smaller medium. The puff sleeves have three button closure at the extra long cuffs. This blouse zips up the back with hook & eye closure at the neck. The collar can be worn up for a turtleneck or down for a mandarin collar. It is woven crepe man-made fabric with no stretch, so you should check the measurements against your own.

It measures in inches:
waist (around): 33"
hem/hips (around): 38"
bust (around, measured from armpit): 38"
bust (around, measured from dart, 2" below armpit): 37"
sleeve from inner top of shoulder to wrist hem: 20.5"
length from bottom of collar to bottom hem: 38"
length from bottom of collar to waist seam: 19.75"
collar (around, laid flat): 16"
collar height (unfolded): 3.75"
wrist (around): 8.5"
