Details

This 1970s blue chambray shirt features hand-guided embroidery and needlepoint in a charming nature motif. A wide-point collar is trimmed in white rickrack, with colorful wildflowers stitched along the placket and collar tips. The front is adorned with embroidered owls, butterflies, and turtles — while the cuffs feature a red biplane and a bluebird in flight. On the back, a large needlepoint turtle rests among mushrooms, framed by two smaller turtles and scattered blooms.

Cut from soft cotton-blend chambray, the shirt has a structured silhouette and two front button-flap pockets. Black buttons secure the front closure and cuffs, while white rickrack trims the edges for a textural finish. This piece is tagged a vintage Girl’s Size 6 and fits accordingly — please see measurements for details. Visible hand-stitching and age patina throughout reflect the handmade quality and era-specific wear of the garment.

Each piece in the Bang Bang Company collection is selected for its storytelling power and folk craftsmanship. This shirt speaks to a time when clothing was often made with care — and made to last. Ideal for collectors, vintage kidswear lovers, or those drawn to the nostalgic, playful spirit of cottagecore.
