This is a phenomenal 1970s Ossie Clark boutique blouse with an important and well documented print by Celia Birtwell. It is fully labelled and additionally has the Quorum boutique retail label which sold Ossie's costly mainline collections - they are much rarer than Radley retailed pieces.

We really love these types of blouses and although this one is unlabelled, it was most likely made in the Far East in the 1960s or 1970s. It feels like a silky man-made blend. The en...
