According to the vendor who worked on Desperately Seeking Susan, this blouse was one of many costumes worn by Madonna in the film that were borrowed from Madonna's own personal wardrobe at the time of filming.

This blouse was worn in the film by Madonna during several consecutive scenes. She is wearing it when she reads the classified ad regarding the key, when she arrives at Battery Park looking for "The Stranger," when she is arrested for not paying her taxi fare, in jail and at the Port Authority.
