This romantic shirt was featured in three catalogues in 1987 in three different colors: Ivory, Olive Drab, and Khaki. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The work was hot, hard, and unglamorous at Karen (Dinesen) Blixen’s coffee plantation in the Ngong Hills, and she pined for cultured companions. So at the least opportunity to be festive, she rose passionately to the occasion. “I can go about in rags, you know,” she wrote to her brother, “but to go out to dinner or the races in a dowdy outfit is…unnatural to me.” She’d have felt at ease in the elegantly tailored Kenya Pioneer’s Shirt, with its tapering back yoke, romantic pleated shoulders, and graceful shaped cuffs. It’s executed in a sensual yet sturdy cotton twill that embraces the dawn with as much spirit as it greets the dusk.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modeled with the Savanna Skirt<\/a> by Kimberlee English Anderson. Thanks for the pics, Kimi! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
