Will this cling through the middle?
The blouse is designed with a relaxed body rather than a close-fitting silhouette. The center-front pleat releases additional fullness through the lower portion of the blouse so the fabric has room to fall naturally.
Will the loose fit make me look shapeless?
The blouse is intentionally relaxed, but the shape isn't completely unstructured. The front pleat controls where the extra fullness is released, while the lapel collar and wide cuffs add definition around the neckline and sleeves.
What exactly does the front pleat do?
The inverted pleat begins beneath the button placket and opens toward the hem. This allows the fabric to spread and move through the lower half of the blouse instead of hanging completely flat.
Does it button all the way down?
No. The blouse has a half-placket design with three oversized wood-tone buttons at the upper front.
What is the fabric made from?
The blouse is made from polyester with a matte, woven linen-look texture.
Does the fabric actually look like linen?
It has a visible cross-hatched woven texture designed to give the surface a linen-inspired appearance while the confirmed material itself is polyester.
