The Classic Woman's Bow Blouse

So elegant and effortlessly chic. Do young women still wear these?

They were such a staple for professional women in the 80s and 90s. Feminine but not aggressively sexy.

What has become of the bow blouse?

They always distracted me. I hated the brown ones.

Kate gives hers a royal nod of approval.

HELLO Magazine calls it a "pussy-bow blouse." Hee.

That's a classic "pussy bow." Rhymes with "ho."

They're now mainly popular with Eastern European whores

Having large breasticles, these don't work for me (female). They look fine on the twiggy type.

A "pussy bow" should NOT have long, phallic dangly bits. It's short, demure, and unassuming.

According to this illustration, it's still desirable job interview wear.

But the drawing is quite school-marmish and unflattering. And are those knee socks she's wearing?

If career women had personal maids to tie the bows for them, we'd see more pussy bows. But most women make a mess of these when left to their own devices.

It was Maggie Thatcher's signature look.

I've had it up to pussy's bow with you, Kim!

If it keeps their blouses closed and their tits covered, I'm all for it.

I had no idea this look was closely identified with Melania.

Ewww. Margaret Thatcher is one thing, but...

I may have to rethink this thread.

They are classic.

I’m a woman who wears a lot of “classic” items instead of trendy ones, but for some reason never adopted this one. Maybe I’ll give it another look. It just reminds me of moms in the 70s and not in a good way.

Just say "bow".

I don't think that ^^ bow is part of the blouse, though.

She just tied a rag 'round her scrawny neck.

We don't care what blouse Melania wears. We are simply grateful that someone got her into one.

That is just hideous, R20. Nancy looks like she stole it from a gay bellboy at an Eastern European hotel.

Did stupid Nancy Reagan die yet?
