Vintage Lace Yoke Velvet Long Sleeve Blouse

The upper half of this piece is sheer mesh worked with a scalloped lace applique, so it reads almost like a delicate collar sitting over the velvet beneath. Below the yoke the fabric gathers into soft folds that fall away from the body, and long full sleeves taper into ruffled cuffs at the wrist. A small ruffle at the neckband ties the details together for an unmistakably old-world feel. Eight rich colorways, from forest and plum to rust and berry, look especially good with cuffed denim shorts, dark jeans or a velvet skirt.
