Big Girls Blouse - Kunzea
An artwork you can wear for best-practice sustainable fashion. Every Big Girls Blouse shirt I make is a labour of love, that takes many hours to create.
Sourced at an op-shop by my friend Helen, who has a particularly good eye, this shirt has been re-loved and hand-printed. Now it’s a one-off gender-neutral shirt or over-shirt that would suit a stylish human.
Kunzea is printed on a pale pink, crispy cotton, slightly fitted Country Road shirt. There are tiny pink dots printed on the shirt which was the inspiration for me to go and draw the Kunzea plant which flowers in Spring on our property. This year has been a particularly good year for Kunzea.
The model ( me) is a size 14+. Although on the fitted side, this shirt feels really good to wear. Smart yet casual, as you can see.
See SPECS below for this shirt’s measurements.
Specs
