This illustration is for a 1952 Eve’s Weekly and describes a blouse in which pink wool flowers are worked on a grey net which is then lined with grey satin. The flower centres are envisoned to be black beads but they also encourage contiuing with wool embroidery . The write up also discusses how the choli/blouse is more defiant than its older counterparts with a low, low V and near off shoulder square and a heart shaped neckline. The blouse is worn with a shaded pink and grey saree, probably chiffon.
