The 210 Armistice Blouse by Folkwear is an elegant women's blouse dating from 1918, at the end of World War I. Its design reflects a period when women's fashion was transitioning from elaborate Edwardian details toward more practical clothing, combining both influences in a graceful and feminine silhouette.

The back extends over the shoulders to meet a lightly gathered front and gathers at the centre back waist into a self-fabric tie or optional ribbon that wraps around the waist and ties at the front. A long collar falls softly over a centre vestee to create a deep rectangular neckline, while tiny buttons close the blouse along the left side.

Long set-in sleeves gather into wide turn-back cuffs, and the traditional curved hem is slightly shorter at the back. View A offers a simpler untrimmed finish, while View B adds lace to the collar, cuffs and vestee. Optional tucks and drawn-thread work allow for additional historical detailing.
