Part pirate wench, part romantic neo-Victorian explorer, our Evangeline blouse makes the perfect white canvas for your colorful ensemble. Express your individuality and dress this shirt up or down as you see fit; you certainly won’t be a soulless slave to fashion when your brassy bits and bling bring it to life.
Fashioned from lightweight shirting, this blouse features ¾-length sleeves ending ruffles and lace. Satin ribbon detailing in front and in back is inspired from the corsets of the 19th century. The pleated V-neck and button-up placket are also trimmed in lace and a slight triangular scarf collar can be folded up or down depending on your mood.
Fashioned from 97% cotton and 3% spandex. Imported. Machine wash cold and hang to dry or dry clean. Available in sizes S-2X.
This blouse is well made with many flattering details. It looks great with a long skirt, but also it can rock a pair of jeans. I am between a large and extra large in size and found the extra large to be a better fit.

Not true to size - Design is beautiful, I'll probably remake w/ additional fabric to allow breathing.

The fit is a bit snugger than I thought so I had to move up one size, and the arms are still a hair tighter than is idea. But the blouse is very nice. I love the side lacing.
love it!

I absolutely love this blouse! I had ordered it before in black (white was out of stock at that time) and got many compliments on it, so when the white became available I pounced on it. The detail is beautiful, and the quality is very good, especially for the price. My only caveats (not complaints, just comments) are: it does seem to run small (I normally wear a "large" or 16-18 in most clothing, and the 2X in this blouse fits very snugly), and it would probably be best to hand-wash rather than machine wash. I do have a delicate/handwash cycle on my washer, but the lacing still got tangled even with the gentle cycle. And as the tag says, it's definitely NOT machine dryable; the lacing would be impossible to detangle after that! But I...

I'm quite impressed with this blouse. The fit is lovely, the quality good, and they got it to me quickly. I only wish it came in more colours than black/white, but I dyed mine and it came out just fine
Absolutely beautiful

I was concerned about the fit of the blouse when I ordered it. I admittedly am a difficult to fit size. I shouldn't have worried. If the blouse can fit me, it can fit almost anyone. Not only does it fit like a dream, but it is absolutely beautiful. It can be worn with slacks or a simple skirt for a dressier look, yet you can dress down and pair it with jeans. The only head's up about it is that you will need to wear it with a camisole.I bought two of these blouses, I may have to pick up more. It has become a staple of my everyday wardrobe.
Gorgeous.

The detailing is beautiful and the fit was almost perfect. The only problem I had was in the sleeves. They were too tight on my forearms and I have to either get an extender for the buttons, or wear the sleeves unbottoned and pushed up my arm. The rest of the blouse fits as sized on the site.
Pleasantly Surprised

I bought this blouse for my Steampunk Halloween costume, and fully expected to receive a shoddily put-together piece of clothing. I was very pleasantly surprised to receive a beautifully made blouse. I fully expect to add this piece to my everyday wardrobe.
