BIG DART Oversized Button Down Shirts for Women, Dressy Casual Long Sleeve Blouses Summer Tops Tunics

Update 06242024: Continuing to love this top. I’ve bought mid-tone blue, light pink, dusty rose, dusty amethyst, Kelly green, beige, dark brown. At this time l have worn and washed each several times and all are ready to go in the closet, no ironing, right out of the dryer. This is a very comfortable, versatile top. About the colors available, well, I never thought I would like dark brown. But at the moment it’s my favorite. Each shirt I’ve purchased, whatever color, works out to be an excellent layering option. I think it has something to do with the many subtle mid-tones colors offered. Early June 2024: Yes, lightweight, but I was so surprised when my order arrived… This woven shirt’s substantial, classic, tailored-top, cotton-poly blend means the garment will shape itself to fit the body as 1. its designer intended, and 2. stand up to repeated wear and washings. I haven’t seen a quality fabric in a garment like this for a while! (FYI: On the first round of washing, at the end of the dryer cycle, the shirt came out a bit softened, compared to original, and had the most minor wrinkling. No hint of pilling. Most def, I’m not going to bother ironing it.) Now regarding garment design, where the shirt is cut loosely, it stands off the body a bit to give ease, look good, and feel good. And where cut closer, its darts, tucks, bends, seams, and details are feminine and flattering. And though this shirt is over-sized, it is quite feminine. Shoulder cut, wrist details, seaming are flattering as is its small lapel size. For those a larger than me (I’m 5’3”, 120 lb), this shirt might be useful as a one-layer option. Why? The generous cut of this shirt lends itself to being styled many ways…tie it up at the waist, half-tuck it, belt it, jewelry it at the neckline, layer it… And beyond that, the garment’s straight, front button placket, from neck opening to garment bottom, means its neckline can be styled as desired for modesty. (And these days, I looking more often for that option! OMG, I’ve getting old!) On me, the small size is too long to be worn as a one-layer piece. But in my region, it is perfect, perfect, perfect as a summer over-shirt. So perfect I bought two and am eyeing a third and a fourth.

I bought two of these, in green and lavender. After washing them, I did not notice many wrinkles. It is made out of Pamuk (70) and polyester (30). It is lightweight but not see through. It almost feels like chiffon. It wears well in the heat in summertime. I really like the green one the best. It is bigger than a regular blouse but I like that looseness in the summer. I am fairly tall and it goes half way down to my knee. I might have been able to buy a smaller size, but I like the blousiness of it. I like to roll the sleeves up.

It was fresh lightweight material, fits well. I took one star away because a bottom button came loose after the first wear. But it looks good and fits as expected.

Please note that the way this blouse is cut is not for everybody. This was hard to see on the Amazon website photos, until after the blouse was delivered and I went back & carefully looked at the photos again. There was no mention of sleeve description in the write-up. The blouse is cut bizarrely in the shoulders/upper sleeves. It’s more raglan-sleeve type. There is no shoulder seam and it’s quite bulky under the arms and at the top of the sleeves. There’s a seam around the sleeve about one-third of the way down from the shoulder, and then the rest of the sleeve is quite narrow. It was not flattering on me — too much fabric under the arm, so I’m returning it. The blouse is Made in Turkey. It does look rather cheaply made, but then again it only costs $24, so don’t expect quality at that price. I liked that it was 70% cotton and only 30% polyester. I ordered the royal blue and while it was a nice blue color, it was nowhere near true royal blue. Closer to a Dutch blue. I usually can wear only petite sizes and have rather short arms, even petite sleeves are often too long for me. However, these sleeves in regular sizing were the perfect length for me, so if you tend to have longer arms, the sleeves may be too short. But you can always just roll them up. I hope this information is helpful.

Fits perfectly

You get what you pay for. This item, though exceptionally cheap- which is a big red flag for me- was recommended by a Travel & Leisure publication for its suitability for warm weather vacation travel. I wouldn’t know; I’m returning it immediately. As some reviewers note, the fabric is weird. It feels like it should be used for a sand-resistant picnic blanket rather than clothing. But I was buying this shirt for a beach vacation, so that wasn’t the main issue. The cuffs are a strange length; neither full sleeve or 3/4 sleeve, the shirt looks like it is either the wrong size for extra long arms (think high-water jeans when you were a kid) -even though I ordered up to address any length issues, or the sizing is only intended for very tiny people with short limbs. In any event, they look less than flattering on a shirt otherwise cut with classic lines. All of this aside though, the final straw for me is that the hem doesn’t align on both sides of the buttons. So, one side of the shirt is slightly longer than the other, making you look like you missed a button somewhere. It’s not dramatic but it IS annoying and not something I can abide. In sum, you pay only a few dollars (pre-tariff prices) for a mass-produced shirt from China and you are going to get poor fabric, fit, and craftsmanship. It is totally expected but I let a glowing review in a travel mag convince me otherwise. Never again!

Les manches sont un peu courtes, mais je les roule. Parfait pour moi.
