orslow TYPE1 40'S PLEATED FRONT BLOUSE 2YR WASH

In the 1940s, before denim jackets were called "jean jackets," they were known as pleated blouses. The front pleat design is a remnant of the 1800s. Fabrics that were not pre-shrunk after weaving tended to shrink significantly in the vertical direction. It is said that in the 1800s, the fabric was sewn horizontally, and the pleats could be unpicked after washing to widen the garment after shrinkage. Even after the shift to using the fabric vertically, the design remained and is still carried on today as the front pleat design. Denim from the 1940s tends to have longer vertical unevenness compared to later denim. It is unclear whether this is due to differences in how the fibers break depending on whether the raw cotton was hand-picked or machine-picked, but the unevenness of denim from before the 1940s and denim from the 1950s are different. The original denim used in orslow 6011 also uses material with longer vertical unevenness than others. The back is a T-back design for sizes 3 and above. This design was likely conceived in an era when goods were precious and used sparingly, in order to maximize the use of large-sized fabrics. The silhouette, yoke, and sleeve placement have been faithfully reproduced from vintage 1940s garments.

In the 1940s, before denim jackets were called denim jackets, they were called pleated blouses.
The front pleat design is a remnant of the 1800s.
Fabric that is not treated with shrink-proofing after weaving shrinks easily in the vertical direction, and it is said that in the 1800s, the fabric was sewn horizontally so that if it shrunk after washing, the pleats could be undone to widen the garment.
Even after the fabric was sewn vertically, the design remained, and is still carried on today as the front pleat design.
Denim from the 1940s tends to have longer vertical unevenness than denim from later years. It is not clear whether this is because the fibers break down differently depending on whether the cotton was hand-picked or machine-picked, but the unevenness looks different between denim from before the 1940s and denim from the 1950s.
The original denim used by orslow6011 also uses a material with longer vertical unevenness than other denim.
The back is a T-back for sizes 3 and above.
This design was likely devised to make better use of fabric in larger sizes in an era goods when were precious and no waste was wasted.
The silhouette, yoke, sleeve seam positions, etc. have all been faithfully reproduced to resemble a 1940s vintage garment.
