Frill Gingham Cap Sleeve Blouse in Red

Gingham is the print that always comes back around, and in red it arrives with the volume turned up exactly the right amount. This blouse works in a frill where the eye lands, a lace up detail at the front and buttons to keep the whole thing honest. Cap sleeves leave the arms free, which makes it a summer piece before it is anything else.

The fabric is a blend of 95% polyester and 5% elastane, listed with no stretch, so it holds a crisp line rather than clinging. Sizes run S through XL. Top length sits between 22.2 and 23.4 inches, which lands around the hip bone and makes it an easy piece to tuck or leave out. Bust runs from 31.5 inches at S to 37.8 inches at XL, so the fit is on the closer side. If you are between sizes or prefer more room across the chest, size up. Full numbers are below.

Wear it with white denim shorts and sandals on a hot afternoon, tucked into a linen skirt for lunch, or under a cream cardigan when the evening cools. Red gingham does a lot of work on its own, so keep everything else plain and let it be the point. Denim in any wash is the safest partner, and a straw bag finishes the whole thing without any thought at all.
