Original 1950s blouse with a Justin’s, Albuquerque, New Mexico label. Made from lightweight white crinkled fabric, likely cotton, which is slightly sheer. The front has shaped panels decorated with several different types of red and silver metallic trim. It has a round neckline finished with bias binding, seven-eighth-length sleeves with small pleats at the lower edge, and shaping darts at the front and back. There are also darts in the sleeves. The blouse fastens at the left side with a metal zipper. The zipper ends approximately 7.5 cm / 3" above the hem, leaving a small side opening.
