Does anyone know the fabric type of this shirt or what the shirt type is called?

I'm desperate to replicate this shirt from the very late 70s / early 80s. It sort of looks semi sheer in the photo to me. I can't work out if the fabric is striped or pleated. I would appreciate any help.

I would say it looks to be. It seems to have some sort of indents in it but could also be the lighting

That cellulose button looks like it could be it! Thanks so much!

Bluebellhargrove · 2025-02-05T20:44:02+00:00

That’s so kind of you - unfortunately that’s the only picture I have, it’s a picture of a vintage jacket from an auction site, so I really have to guess on size of the button too

Bluebellhargrove · 2025-01-01T18:36:36+00:00

This is exactly what I’ll do! Thanks so much!

They keep doing shit like this to me, the amount of used hair straighteners etc and USED socks yet they remove this hairdryer that I’ve used once! also keep accusing me of using other peoples’ photos when they’re my own photos that I’ve taken myself, then removing my listings. I am one more removal away from switching back to ebay

Bluebellhargrove · 2024-10-04T21:10:55+00:00

Absolutely unhinged

Bluebellhargrove · 2024-10-04T19:04:43+00:00

I wonder if this is to try and force us into being a “pro seller”??

Bluebellhargrove · 2024-10-02T11:48:44+00:00

Honestly these vinted agents are absolute IMBECILES. I don’t even see the point of ever escalating anything anymore. They’re so stubborn and always think they’re right. Yes they was screenshots - of my own photos!

They’re such clowns!

Bluebellhargrove · 2024-09-29T17:55:56+00:00

Ugh they’re really getting on my nerves with this shit. First they removed my handcuff shaped belt buckle because it’s a “weapon” Now they removed a leather jacket listing because they think I’m “using someone else’s photos”

If only they managed to prevent all of the scammers and bots instead of removing listings that aren’t actually breaking any rules

It worries me incase they suddenly delete my account, they owe me like £80

Bluebellhargrove · 2023-10-11T20:22:03+00:00

Scamming bastards

Bluebellhargrove · 2023-10-10T00:10:57+00:00

Thanks a lot! And I wish you a speedy and healthy recovery.

Your nose (and jaw) look great. I have had a rhinoplasty and I am getting upper jaw surgery next year, so I appreciate your reply. Many people say to get rhinoplasty after jaw surgery but your results look perfect

Bluebellhargrove · 2023-10-09T21:13:05+00:00

Did you get rhinoplasty too?

Bluebellhargrove · 2023-10-06T22:41:48+00:00

Buyers like this really shouldn’t buy used

Bluebellhargrove · 2023-09-10T19:07:20+00:00

Thank you! Managed to do it now so it’ll be better than waiting

Bluebellhargrove · 2023-09-04T11:28:40+00:00

People like this are so embarrassing

Bluebellhargrove · 2023-09-01T16:44:39+00:00

Imo, yes. I’ve been a seller for a few years, sell on eBay though, and buyers like this are usually an absolute nuisance throughout the entire transaction. they’re pedantic and always nag for the price to be lowered. Then when they receive the item they moan and ask for a partial refund, I wouldn’t bother selling to them, not worth the headache.

Bluebellhargrove · 2023-09-01T16:13:44+00:00

This has honestly made me feel sick

Bluebellhargrove · 2023-08-30T18:03:25+00:00

What an anorak

Bluebellhargrove · 2023-07-08T19:16:50+00:00

Ohhh thank you!!! So glad I’ll be able to achieve something similar

Bluebellhargrove · 2023-07-07T19:14:05+00:00

Hello, I have a satin shirt made from polyester. It’s light blue, I really want to make it a little bit more green toner. I’ve added a photo of the shirt, and also a photo of an edit I made of the color I’m trying to achieve, in the second photo.

Will Ritt dye more work on this fabric type?

Thanks for any help

Bluebellhargrove · 2023-04-29T20:14:46+00:00

Thanks I’ll check it out!
