Description

Straight-cut 'stanok' shirt (cut-off). Sewn from three panels. Straight sleeve with a gusset and insert sewn along the weft, decorated at the top with four rows of 'pukhlyky' (20.5 cm long). The sleeve is joined to the insert along the length of the 'pukhlyky' with an openwork seam. The body and inserts are gathered near the neckline into fine pleats using the 'sewing to the collar' technique. The neckline is round with a central front slit (23 cm long), finished with a narrow hem, fastened with a loop buttonhole on the right and a small mother-of-pearl button on the left. The shirt is decorated on the sleeves and inserts with stylized floral embroidery in wide horizontal stripes (garlands of roses with large buds). The sleeve edge is decorated with white and red crocheted lace.
