orslow / TYPE1 40'S PLEATED FRONT BLOUSE ONE WASH

Introducing orslow's classic TYPE1 40'S PLEATED FRONT BLOUSE one wash.
In the 1940s, before denim jackets were called jeans, they were called pleated blouses.
The front pleat design still carries traces from the 1800s.
Fabric that is not shrink-resistant after weaving shrinks well vertically, and in the 1800s, the fabric was sewn horizontally, and after washing and shrinking, the pleats could be undone to widen the body.
Even after the fabric was designed to use vertical fabric, only the design remained, and it continues today as the front pleat design.
Denim from the 1940s tends to have longer vertical unevenness compared to later denim. Whether the raw cotton was hand-picked or machine-picked is unclear because the way the fibers break differ, but the uneven appearance differs between denim before the 1940s and denim from the 1950s.
The original denim used in orslow6011 also uses a material with longer vertical unevenness than other materials.
The back specification is T-back for sizes 3 and above. This design was likely designed to improve the size of larger fabrics in an era when items were precious and used efficiently.
Vintage enthusiasts commonly refer to them as "T-backs."
The silhouette, yoke, and sleeve switching positions faithfully reproduce the 1940s VINTAGE. The sleeves are set-in sleeves, with a single chest pocket with a flap on the left.
The front double-action pleats are designed for ease of movement and serve as an important design accent.
The waist cinch belt can also be adjusted, but it also creates a striking back style. Based on the so-called "first model," it is designed to match modern styles in terms of length and pocket placement.
The fabric used aims to express a unique atmosphere reminiscent of vintage cloth and is woven using the same method as it was over 60 years ago.
Because of this, it has unique neps and twists not found in modern materials.
It uses 13.7oz (ounces) of Selvedge denim.
