Lovely top

Yes, I recommend this

This looks great with the matching linen trousers. It was quite tricky to get the back to tighten up like the front and getting it to look even is hard but it looks good and flattering when on. I downsized in the top and there is still plenty of room.

Exactly what I was looking for.

Yes, I recommend this

Saw similar on another website/store for almost twice the price. It’s smart but relaxed.

Love this shirt

Yes, I recommend this

Love this shirt - crisp white - can alter the drawstring ties to the shape you want! Large fit (12/14) reviews suggested to go down a size so opted for a 10 - plenty of room still and fine on my arms too! Good length to cover tummy area - will be great for holidays! Thinking of ordering the sandstone one too!

Lovely versatile summer shirt

Yes, I recommend this

A comfortable fit and great quality. Sizing was larger than usual so I ordered a smaller size. A great top for versatile summer wear.

Great shirt but size down!

Yes, I recommend this

Beautiful fabric and great styling but I had to go down 2 sizes - I know it’s oversized but the arms on my normal size were so big they looked awful. Yes it was creased when I received it but it’s pure linen and it’s not difficult to run an iron over. Even dropping the 2 sizes, it was still possible to get a good shape with the drawstring and I also intend to use it as a lightweight jacket without the gathers. I am going to buy the white one as well

Nice style shirt, fits big in your normal size

I really like this style, preferred the natural and although the 10 fitted better, it was only available in 8 in my chosen colour... tried to find in store to exchange as I'd had the luck of getting 20% off on sparks, to no avail. Hey ho. Anyway I've kept the 8 (and I'm a 12-14), the only negative I'd say apart from smaller than I'd wanted, is the seams around the body feel tight if you need to outstretch your arms, so bear this is mind and maybe only size down one size. Sadly the 10 is now back in stock but sparks have changed the rewards scheme so unable to get the desired size now.

Beautiful fabric and style

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely linen that isn’t see through. A generous size but I’m keeping it as I want to feel comfortable whilst on holiday. Could be worn over a vest to protect shoulders from too much sun!

A really lovely useful shirt. It does come up big though, so if you prefer a more fitted look size down

Lovely fabric and great style. Helps to hide the bits you want hidden, and at the same time accentuates the waste.

Versatile linen top

Yes, I recommend this

I liked this structured linen top because it has good upper arm coverage and a collar. The drawstring allows you to alter the fit. I am size 8 or 10 in M&S tops - size 8 had plenty of room without swamping me. Happy to purchase with Sparks discount.

Creases

Unfortunately it quickly becomes very creased. Not a good idea by me to take it on holiday either

Another Oversized Garment

No, I don't recommend this

Big and boxy, I had assumed I could wear without the tie as I no longer have the waistline I once did, however even though I ordered the size 8 it still looked too big and unflattering, I am a petite size 12. The colour isnt quite as yellow as I thought it would be, I have bought other items in sandstone which are nicer, quality seems fine but I wont be keeping.

Sizing issue

Yes, I recommend this

I was disappointed with this blouse . Quality was excellent and i loved the style, but the sizing is way off. I ordered the smallest size and it was still too big. Thought i may be able to wear it oversized but the shoulders just looked wrong. So reluctantly had to go back .
