purple waves satin blouse / 1970s hand dyed vintage top / artist made OOAK
Hand made rayon satin blouse in wavy tie dye pattern, circa 1970s vintage.
High slash neckline, four button placket.
Full shape, with pleating along the neckline; sleeves are seamed down the top and mutton shaped with single button at cuffs.
Vibrant periwinkle, magenta- toned violet, sea foam, etc.
Part of a collection purchased directly from the artist, who created these for sale in the late 1970s. Each piece is absolutely one of a kind - both a piece of beautifully made clothing and a piece of wearable art!
While this piece is unworn, it has been handled and does show some light snags, areas of abrasion. Given the volume and the dyed pattern, these areas aren't terribly noticeable, but worth noting- priced accordingly.
Stunning!
