Reviews

Slightly Disappointed for the price

"The shirt is stylish and cute, but given the price I was disappointed in the quality. It's very thin and will undoubtedly require an undershirt and a light colored bra. Several areas had loose threads (almost every button hole, inside seams, and around the buttons). Packaging was sustainable (which I loved) but it resulted in the shirt arriving very wrinkled. Be sure to have an iron or steamer if you purchase! Overall it's just ok. I'd wait for a sale. Size purchased: US 2 Height: 5 foot 6 inches Weight: approx 113 lbs"

Terrible fit

"I bought this before traveling so unfortunately im now past the return window. I followed the size guide provided with my measurements and ended up at a size 6. I love the way the embroidery looks but the collar is way to big, the sleeves aren't long but feel huge on my arms, and the overall material is thin and sheer. I would recommend sizing down if you buy. Ill be figuring out what to do with this thing now."

Amazing shirt

"I am a size 22 with a large bust so buying this type of clothing can be challenging, but wow this shirt is beautiful. The embroidery is so pretty and the tiny bits of purple on top of the thistles was a lovely surprise. It fits so well. Will definitely recommend this shop to everyone."

Beautiful collar detail

"I love this shirt. Runs a little bit big but still a good fit"

Richtig schöne Bluse. Passt perfekt.

"Richtig schöne Bluse. Passt perfekt. Sie ist um den Hals etwas weiter"

Exactly what I was looking for

"I was looking for white collared shirts to layer and wear with dresses, corsets and such and this is perfect. It looks very pretty all on its own too though and is a great contrast piece. It’s great quality and fits great. It doesn’t have a lot of stretch but is still comfortable and lightweight. It’s a very nice dress shirt and I love the embroidery, it sets it slightly apart from similar options."

Very good

"The fit is good, also the material, is soft and comfortable"

— Greta V. (5/5)

Professional top with originality

"This top is an improved version of a boring collared button-up. It is stylish and professional to wear to work. It is a lot looser than I expected. I sized down, and there is still significant room in the sleeves, which is good for me because I have muscular arms."

— Bree H. (5/5)

Thin and transparent

"This shirt is really thin fabric. You can see straight through it. I wish they had used some better quality fabric so it wasn't completely transparent. You have to either wear something over it or under it."

— Steph G. (3/5)

Perfekt fit.

"Perfekt fit."
