Belle Poque Women's Ruffle Sleeve Blouses Button Down Shirts V Neck Vintage Dressy Blouse and Tops

I really like this blouse. Disappointed that I sized up. One of the reviews recommended that if you are larger thank a D cup to size up. My regular size blouse is Medium.I appreciate the review that I read about sizing up because you never can tell how clothing may fit when buying online . I really like reading the reviews. They help me a lot.The size chart had an influence on me in choosing the size for this blouse. The info there pointed to sizing up. In this case I will return it. Not sure I will reorder. I had a nice coupon for it, but now there is no coupon.The blouse is very beautiful and so are the buttons. The reviews are spot on about the buttons. I was going to just pulled the blouse over my head—as suggested by the reviews. As soon as I got it on. I noticed that about 5 of the buttons were undone. I tried to button them with the blouse on. Impossible ! I took off the blouse and struggled for about 20 minutes. Finally, I was able to pull the very tiny elastic loops over the small buttons that are way too big for the loops. I’m thinking that another lady had trouble with the buttons and had to leave them undone. And that’s okay; I understand.I’m hoping that it will work for the next customer. I’m hoping that she will avoid unbuttoning the blouse by just slipping it over her head. If she does that and it fits, she will love it. If I do reorder, my regular, size, i hope it’s buttoned all the way up. I will leave it buttoned “forever” ( lol!) and slip it over my head as one review suggested.UPDATE…..well, just a few days after I wrote my review, I ordered this beautiful blouse in Medium. So glad I did! It fits perfectly. It’s so classy. I had to laugh a little. Four or five buttons were open. I patiently until I got the tiny little elastic loops to go over the buttons. It took some time and it was worth it. I slipped it on over my head. This gorgeous black blouse fit perfectly! I just won’t unbutton it.I usually wear Medium. Weight 120 lbs. 36DD waist 28 hip 37.

Beautifully made shirt. It was exactly what I was looking for. I did have to return though due to it being just a tad more fitted than my plus size middle could handle. If it came in a larger size or two, I'd purchase this shirt in multiple colors. Great for the price and love the sweaters I've gotten from this brand. Well made and definitely worth the price. I hit the wrong weight. I'm 230-235 weight.

I'm in between sizes, for reference, I'm a 12/14 at LB. Ample bosom, upper arms and thighs, with an hourglass shape and a defined waist.This is a great blouse, however, heed some of the following:1. If you have larger upper arms, the bat-layered sleeves will make them seem larger. They cut right at the mid-upper arm. Smaller upper arms or average to small-ish shoulders, you should be good.2. If you have a larger mid-section, size up either one or two sizes. The waist is truly defined. The sizing measurements are accurate -- read them carefully.3. If you have a average to large-ish bosom (no larger than a D cup), this will fit correctly. If you're smaller up top, size down (but read bullet # 2), conversely, larger then size up.4. The buttons are hell in a handbasket. Pro tip: Loop them once and get into the blouse over the head. You're welcome.It's a good quality shirt and handsome, but the unflattering cut in the sleeves means it goes back.

Good Quality, very nice details. Arrived promptly. Also ordered the green one and it is a lovely color too. It is a bit steep in price around $30, but if you take care of it (I hand wash in a bucket with some Woolite and give it a spray rinse in the shower, roll in a dry towel and squeeze, then button up and hang to dry ~ it's easier than it sounds, don't be scared!) . Would buy again.

Beautiful but size chart not accurate. According to the size chart I would be a large. I don't have a big chest but I do have a monmy belly. Bust fut but not the waist On the solid black with flowing sleeves. Going to see what sizing up does. Chest did not fit but belly did on the white with cherries. Can't size down on that. No give. Am returning the black one for the XL and hoping it will fit better. Scared the chest will be too big. Just returning the white with cherries for a refund.

I am 5'3", 225 lbs. and I ordered the largest size. The shirt was more snug after washing. This shirt comes with elastic loops for the buttons, which stretch out too much. I ran a thread down the front, and I'm pleased with the results. This shirt is a very fine quality. The stitching is exact.

Super cute. So much so, I ordered two. One medium and one large, depending on the event or occasion. Feminine with a pencil skirt

Other clothes I've purchased from this shop arrive in tightly sealed bags, nicely folded with tissue paper. This shirt arrived in a loose, generic bag, poorly folded with no tissue paper, and a deodorant mark on the inside. The material of this shirt looks ok, but feels cheap.
