Ruffled Long Sleeve Blouse

Ruffles are what separate a blouse from a shirt. They soften the whole shape, catch the light differently as you move, and turn something functional into something you choose to wear. This one combines ruffled detailing with ruching, so there is texture and shaping working together across the body.

The fabric is 100% polyester with no stretch, which is exactly right here. Ruffles need a fabric with enough body to hold their form, and ruching needs something that will gather cleanly rather than sag. Long sleeves keep the blouse working through cooler months, and the shoulder measurement grows steadily across the range, from 15 inches at size S to 17.9 inches at 3XL, so the fit stays proportional as the sizing goes up. Four colours are available: white, black, navy blue and dark green. Sizes run S through 3XL.

Tuck it into tailored trousers with heels and you have an outfit for a meeting, a presentation or a dinner where you want to look considered. Wear it loose over dark jeans with boots for something more relaxed that still has presence. It slides under a blazer without any fuss because the ruffles sit at the front and sleeves rather than the shoulders. White is the classic choice and the one that will get the most wear, but dark green is quietly the most interesting. Keep jewellery minimal and let the ruffles carry it.
