Pure Cotton Striped Blouse

The fabric and style of this blouse are gorgeous but unfortunately it was a very poor fit on me, unlike most M&S clothes. It was too narrow across the back which meant I couldn't move my arms much and this pulled the back up so it didn't hang correctly. The shoulders were more puffed than I'd realised, which although fashionable looks too young on me. Finally, the neckline was too high. Possibly a good choice for someone younger, although the cut should be right for the size.

'Pale' blue does not do this colour justice as it has quite a warm summer feel - maybe 'soft' blue would be better. Aware that this blouse had a loose fit I bought a size smaller than normal and was not disappointed; the sleeves, however, were long but I have come to expect this from M and S and normally buy only short sleeved from them. I decided that I loved the blouse enough to lose over 3 inches off the sleeves and to forego the broderie anglaise around the cuff.

I usually wear a 16 top from M&S but whilst it fitted well on my shoulders it was huge at the bottom and it looked like I was wearing a lampshade! I'm not sure going down a size would work as then it would be too tight across my shoulders/bust it. It's a lovely top though and it's a shame I had to return it.

Beautiful blouse but... It is really tight on the sleeves ordered both colours and two different sizes and had to return all of them sadly

Soft, clean, white blouse. Lovely loose style and comfortable to wear. Perfect for casual dressing with jeans. Just love it!! This was out of stock for a while but I kept trying and it was definitely worth the wait!

I love this, had already bought at full price in the white, and at the time was in a quandary over which colour Having tried on in store, soooo when it was online with 40% off it gave me the opportunity to buy no.2 in blue. Lovely well made blouse, and in beautiful quality cotton.

This is a good quality cotton top which isn’t see through. I bought my normal size and it fitted me. I am very pleased with my purchase.

Love a pretty white blouse for the Summer and this one is rather special, with Pom Poms, tucks and texture. Looks great with jeans, trousers or a skirt. Soft, comfortable and fits perfectly. I know I will wear this again and again. Obvs not washed yet but have no doubt it will wash well. M&S at its best.

A really lovely blouse for a taller woman but the sleeves are too long for me (5 foot 2 inches). Sadly returned.

This is a relaxed fit blouse and looks good with skirts and jeans or trousers. Lovely fabric and well made.
