DescriptionA white rubac in coarsely woven linen with white cotton sleeves and natural muslin inserts under the arms. Blue, purple, green, brown, and pink floral embroidery decorates the short sleeves, while red stitched edging finishes the neck. The cuffs are trimmed with white on white cut and embroidery work. The rubac is meant to be worn with a skirt, vest, and apron so it appears as if one is wearing a blouse.
