Hi everyone, I recently acquired this blouse and I was looking for any information anyone has. Authenticity, time period? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Cute blouse! I see early 1970s secretary. As for authenticity, per forum rules we do not authenticate items.
You blouse has the IGLWU label that was used from 1963-1974. https://vintagefashionguild.org/label-resource/ilgwu/ Does it have a cleaning care label? If not it is pre-1972 when care labels were required. I think it might be mid-60's with the fiber content combination but the Union label gives you a good ball park.
Looks more like a tunic than a blouse, to me. Seems too long to tuck into a skirt or slacks? I am not at all familiar with that "made in the USA" and USA Union made Dior label. The only thing I recall having seen anything similar was on lingerie back in the 70s (if I recall correctly) Perhaps this was some limited time licensing thing when Dior was looking to reach a larger and lower end market? The inexpensive fabric of nylon/poly seems more for lounging wear, as does the length.
