Blouses for Women

What types of blouses are there?

Blouses for women come in lots of different styles:

• different sleeve lengths, from long-sleeved and short-sleeved blouses to sleeveless designs
• a range of cuts, such as a relaxed loose-fit blouse, a fitted shirt-style blouse, a casual denim blouse or a longer tunic or longline blouse
• simple basic blouses as well as patterned, striped or colourful styles
• a choice of materials: light muslin and linen blouses for summer, flowing viscose or easy-care cotton

Colours range from classic white and black through blue and green to red, pink and beige.

How do you style a blouse?

A blouse is easy to style in lots of ways. Pair it with jeans for a relaxed look, or with smart trousers or a skirt for something more polished. A loose front tuck defines your waist, while wearing it open over a top creates a lighter, airier feel. For a layered look, wear your blouse under a blazer or a cardigan so the collar and cuffs peek out.

Are long blouses still in style?

Yes, long blouses are still very much in style. A longline blouse or tunic falls past the hips. Wear one open as a light overshirt over a slim-fitting top, or team it with skinny trousers or leggings. In lightweight fabrics such as muslin or viscose, a long blouse looks especially airy and summery.

Which blouse should you wear for a special occasion?

For special occasions, choose an elegant blouse in a more luxurious fabric or with eye-catching details. Flowing fabrics such as viscose or a silk or satin look come across as high-end, while delicate lace or a subtle glitter effect adds a festive touch. A white blouse is classically elegant, a black one refined and versatile. Pair it with smart trousers or a skirt and your party outfit is ready in no time.
