Woman’s shirt

Shirt made of bleached hemp canvas. Straight silhouette, bodice sewn from three panels, 'dodіlna.' The sleeve with an inset, sewn along the weft, straight, with a gusset, attached to the inset with a hemstitch and overcast stitch, gathered with 'puffy' gathers, gathered at the bottom, on a cuff. The bodice and insets are gathered near the neckline. The neckline is rectangular — kareshaped, with a central slit, finished with a narrow cuff. The cuff has two buttonhole loops for a ribbon. The cuffs have one slit loop and a white button each. The insets, sleeves, and neckline are embroidered with red and black woolen thread in floral and geometric patterns using the cross-stitch technique. The inset features a horizontal stripe of a pattern with roses (Rosa centifolia), connected by branches and leaflets. The rose composition is framed on both sides by a thin stripe of stylized flowers and leaflets. This stripe of stylized floral motif extends almost to the neckline in the shoulder part of the inset. Parallel to it (1.5 cm below), the same pattern is embroidered. The sleeves have a scattering of stylized roses. The neckline is decorated with a geometric pattern. The hem is adorned with a narrow (1 cm) white openwork stitch. In the 1940s–1950s, the embroidery was supplemented. The chest and neckline are decorated with floral and geometric patterns (on the chest — two straight lines and four seven-petaled flowers) in burgundy and pink 'mouline' threads, made with a coarse tambour stitch.
