The fabric is by Laura Ashley circa 1970. The cut and styling is very Biba which I have been informed was very much what L.A. were copying in the early years.. This is very tailored no overlocking on seams . This points to the fact it is hand made and quite possibly a sample made for L.A. There are no identifying labels to be found anywhere.Have looked at some examples of early L.A. blouses and the cut & shape is exactly the same as this.Simply gorgeous!
