Vintage 1980s Navy White Clover Print Blouse Striped Collar Puff Sleeve UK 12-14

A brilliant early 1980s navy and white clover print blouse with bold striped trim and those wonderfully full gathered sleeves.

The navy ground is covered in a dense little white clover motif, contrasted with navy-and-white stripes across the wide pointed collar, cuffs and chest pocket. The shoulders are softly gathered into the yoke, creating the puffed three-quarter sleeve shape, then the body falls loose and straight rather than nipping in at the waist. Very wearable vintage with a sporty preppy edge.

Labelled size 40 and 100% polyester. Estimated modern fit around UK 12-14. I’m a UK 16 and it is slightly tight on my arms, so better fit a 14.
