didi jackson help on dating this rainbow stripe pleated blouse item / information on the brand etc

[Tran Nguyen]

I picked this top up at salvos and it was so cool I bought it despite its steep price! I just wanted to know if anyone had information on the designer / help dating the item. I suspects 80s but I'm unsure. I've tried researching the designer didi jackson but there isn't much information out there. Its made of polyester. I've come across a fashion designer called didi jackson thanks to photo / newspaper archives. Any information would be appreciated x

Could you show a close up picture of the seams please? This will help determine age, also a clear picture of both sides of the care label. It looks quite retro rather than true vintage but the photos will help.

Hi,

I can't find a Didi Jackson, designer, you have, could you let us have your source/s.

I did find Lydia Jackson, her great use of colours and sleeves, there is a resemblance to me and wondering if they are the same person.

I think your blouse is much later then the 80s but the card tag does suggest 80s.

Great sleuthing, Victoria! I am seeing early 80s for the blouse - or even very late 70s.

I forgot to reply and agree, great piece of sleuthing.
