Questions about this Edwardian era blouse

[carla rey]

Hi all!

I have this beautiful Edwardian era blouse with no closures or buttonholes of any kind, but needs them. Would this be something that was sold as a blank meant to be customized?

Thank you in advance

I'll bet it was meant to be closed with studs.

Unless it is simply unfinished? Adding the button holes is probably the last thing you'd do when making a blouse.

It could be just unfinished, good thinking.

I'd try studs on it.

Cin, there are no buttonholes or stud holes. But yes, studs would look wonderful on that.

I'm talking about those studs that push through like an earring post. I have had them but none now to help illustrate.
