Customers overwhelmingly praise the lightweight linen-rayon blend for its softness, breathability, and wrinkle-resistant qualities, making it ideal for warm weather. Many highlight the classic, preppy aesthetic with subtle plaid patterns and refined details. However, a substantial portion report the shirt runs significantly oversized, with many needing to size down or returning items due to dropped shoulders, wide armholes, and sleeves that feel disproportionately long. Despite sizing frustrations, most customers consider the exceptional fabric comfort and timeless style worthwhile, with several owning multiple colors.
This shirt was not for me. I knew it was oversized when I ordered it, but it was much larger than i imagined.

Great drape
Fit: True to size
Great drape and elegant plaid pattern. I choose styles/sizing that I can tie at a high waist. I am petite, 5'3', 120 lbs and the size SR is the right "oversize" fit. A tentative

This shirt had a nice finish when I tried it on, but seems kind of limp and shapeless after it was washed. I hoped to get a lot of use out of it, but it hangs in my closet because

Inaccurate sizing

Nice blouse but the medium size was huge. The shoulder seam was 4” lower than top of
my shoulder. Size was more like a 2x. Couldn’t replace with a small because I suspect it wou

I loved this shirt until I tried it on. The sleeve seam was part way down my arm which made me look like a football player. It was such a nice shirt but it would have been so much

Lovely shirt but too big for size
I love the look and feel for this shirt but unfortunately I have to return it. It is way too big and the smaller sizes are no longer in stock. I wish I had read the reviews before

Nice!
This runs very large, but once I got the right size, I have been very happy with it. The fit is loose and breezy, just right for hot summers.

A nice blouse!
Used for: Travel, Relaxing, Casual or Every Day
This is a very nice blouse - much softer than I anticipated. The fit is true to size, and it looks great with jeans. I don’t give it 5 stars because I think it’s overpriced.
