Striped Ruffle Short Bubble Sleeve Shirt in Black

A bubble sleeve is a small piece of drama on an otherwise sensible shirt. This one keeps the sleeve short, rounds it out at the shoulder, and edges the whole thing with frill and ruffle so that a striped button up stops behaving like a uniform and starts behaving like an outfit.

The fabric is 100% polyester and it is slightly stretchy, which matters more on a shirt than people expect. A woven shirt with no give pulls at the button placket the moment you reach across a table. This one moves with you instead. The stripe runs through a black colorway, the front is buttoned, and frill and ruffle details sit at the sleeve. Sleeve length runs from 10 inches at S to 10.6 inches at XL, so the bubble sits above the elbow and keeps its shape rather than collapsing down the arm.

The bust measurements here are worth reading before you choose. They run from 40.2 inches at S to 48 inches at XL, which is a deliberately roomy cut through the body. This is a shirt designed to blouse rather than to fit close, so if you want it fitted you may want to size down, and if you love an oversized shirt you are already in the right place. Tuck it into tailored trousers with the sleeves as the only statement, wear it loose over jeans with the buttons half undone, or belt it at the waist and let the volume gather above.
