Tie Front Puff Sleeve Blouse in Apricot

This is a blouse with opinions. Puff sleeves at the shoulder, a bow tied at the front, ruffles for softness and a peplum that flares out at the waist rather than hanging straight down. Put together, those details do something specific: they draw the eye in at the middle and out again at the hip, which is why a peplum has stayed in fashion for as long as it has. In apricot, a warm shade that sits somewhere between peach and soft coral, the whole thing reads romantic without tipping into costume.

The fabric is 95% Polyester and 5% Spandex, and it has no stretch, so this is a blouse that holds its shape and keeps its structure through the sleeves and the peplum instead of clinging. That matters for a silhouette like this one, because the flare only works if the fabric has enough body to stand away from you. Sizes run from S through 2XL. Top length measures 23.2 inches at a size S rising to 25.4 inches at a size 2XL, and bust runs 37.4 inches through to 46.1 inches across that range. Since there is no stretch in this one, take a moment with the table below and go by your actual bust measurement rather than the size you usually pick.

Wear it with tailored trousers and heels for a wedding, a lunch or anywhere you want to look like you made an effort. Tuck the peplum thought away and let it sit over slim black trousers for work. It also goes somewhere unexpected with plain blue denim and flat sandals, where the puff sleeves and the bow stop the outfit from being ordinary. Keep jewelry simple, since the neckline is already busy, and let the bow be the thing people notice.
