it’s deadstock, darling – untouched by time but still full of sass

a print featuring early America, because nothing says “I’m cultured” like red, white, and blue
-
standard shirt collar, for when you want to look like you know what you’re doing
-
button-up front, to keep your secrets safely tucked away
- cropped length, for that "I'm here for a peaceful protest, but make it fashion" vibe
This blouse allegedly once belonged to a feisty Southern belle named Mavis Beauregard. Legend has it, Mavis wore it when she tried to sell moonshine out of the back of her Cadillac during a Revolutionary War reenactment. She wasn’t reenacting, of course, just capitalizing on the thirst for patriotism and the, well, thirst. When the local PTA caught wind of her operation, she hightailed it to the mountains, leaving only this deadstock beauty behind. It’s rumored her last words before vanishing were, “No taxation without libation!”
