• Contrast ruffle trim frames the V-neckline and runs down the centre front placket, giving the blouse its defining detail without overwhelming the overall silhouette.
• Long sleeves cut from a semi-sheer woven fabric gather softly at the cuff, adding a delicate finish to the arm.
• The body skims rather than clings - it hangs with a relaxed ease that tucks neatly into high-waisted trousers or sits well worn loose over the hip.
• Fully lined through the body, so it moves and sits cleanly without the need for layering underneath.
• Machine washable, making it a practical choice for regular wear despite its considered finish.

The woven fabric has a lightness to it that gives the sleeves a gentle, billowing quality as you move - there is nothing stiff or structured here. It drapes naturally and settles well, which makes it far easier to style than it first appears. The ruffle at the neckline does the decorative work, so the rest of the blouse stays clean and unfussy. Tucked into straight-leg dark denim with a block-heeled ankle boot - as seen on the model - it strikes the right balance between polished and relaxed for a lunch out, a family gathering, or a day of errands that calls for something a little more considered. For a smart-casual occasion, try it tucked into wide-leg tailored trousers with a simple flat shoe and a structured tote. The blouse works equally well under a blazer when the temperature drops, with the ruffle collar just visible above the lapel - a small but effective styling touch.
