The Boyfriend blouse
What kind of garment is The Boyfriend Blouse?
It's an oversized-looking shirt blouse with two large vertical pleats on the front. It's a button-down blouse with a collar and sleeves that are characteristic of a shirt blouse. Using a thin fabric it's perfect to create blouses but with a slightly thicker fabric such as denim, gabardine twill or a fine wool-cloth it can become a demi-season jacket.
