A beautiful smock style blouse with gentle gathers that fall from the stand collar.  A  half  placket creates an overshirt/smock style. French seams for strength and a neat finish. The faced hem gently curves up at the sides. 

Silk is a natural fibre with inherent breathability and strength. We have chosen a natural silk noil for a rustic yet cosy texture. This has a matt finish with little slubs that add character.


100% washable  silk noil.  This exquisite yet practical fabric has been pre-shrunk and ready to machine wash as needed. (This is a  raw silk with slubs and  a lovely soft handle and drape) 
gentle  wash at 30 degrees. Shake out and hang to dry. Iron as required. Hems, necklines, and cuffs  may  wrinkle with washing. Press with steam to shape, and they'll return to their neat shapes.

It is a 2-3 week schedule from order to dispatch.

The Story 

Inspired by  the British sculptor Barbara Hepworth.  Hepworth was born in Yorkshire and she was inspired by  her ventures  into the Yorkshire landscape with her father. Her father was a surveyor for West Riding County Council, and Hepworth accompanied him on his inspections of local roads and bridges."
