Hiya, I have a Betty Barclay jacket and I'm trying to determine its age. I'm a total noob when it comes to labels... Is the long string of numbers starting with 6 the style number or something I could look up? I figure it's about 80s or 90s, going by its structure and style. Thanks in advance...

Hi all! Came across this Marimekko all-cotton blouse at a thrift store and have not been able to accurately date it. In the pictures attached, you can see it's not a typical print, and the geometric shapes, colors, and 'puffy' sleeves lead me to believe 80s? Maybe 90s? There's only one tag...
