About MeThis blouse comes from Gibb's first solo collection which was unveiled at the Oriental Club in London, 1972. The waist length blouse, with fitted bodice and round neckline has full 'batwing' sleeves which are gathered at the elbow and wrist. The animal motif print silk, which Gibb commissioned from Sue Kemp, illustrates the fascination that he had with the world of nature.
