"Rangegun" mola blouse

This blouse reflects the slimmer cut popular during the 1960s, featuring a short yoke, medium-sized panels, and slightly gathered sleeves. By the 1980s, blouse styles had shifted to a tighter fit with exaggerated puff sleeves, longer yokes, smaller decorative panels, and ruffled hems. The yoke of this blouse is crafted from vibrant, rainbow-striped commercial cotton, adding a striking visual element. The front panel showcases a dynamic design with two large and two small sci-fi-inspired ray guns, along with two figures, possibly robots, also wielding ray guns. Applied text reads “rangegun” and “rangergun.” The reverse panel features a symmetrical design of two large and two smaller birds flanking a mermaid, with the word “cress” applied across the birds’ backs. Additional embellishments, including chain stitch embroidery, further enhance the intricate details of this unique garment.
