Women's Embroidered Blouse Tunic V-Neck Linen Tops Short Sleeve Hi-Low Hem Shirt

Once I bought an XL white linen shirt from a different vendor. It was the same design and price, but I bought their last stock. I really like the 100% linen and found this vendor that sells various colors. I bought 3 more different colors of the shirts. This store's size was different from the other. When I bought XL, it was too big. L size was correct. Make sure to read their size chart before purchase. There are two size charts, and the lower "New" size chart is the correct one. The bust size 45".I made about 4 inches of side slits, and cut the back length same as the front of the shirts. It perfectly fit with my style afterwards.The color of dark gray shirt is brown as shown as the photograph. Both the brown and light blue colors are actually prettier tones than their pictures. I have not received dark blue yet, and I look forward to it.Overall, it is 5 star quality.

I have had this for a couple of weeks and wore it several times. It was pretty and comfortable. I wore it to work this morning and I usually wear a lab coat as well. When I removed my lab coat to put on a gown to see a patient one of the nurses gasped and pointed to my lacy bra on very great display! I had ironed it a few days ago and after several hours of wear today it started to fall apart. Luckily for me I was able to borrow a scrub top to save my blushes. As you can see from the pictures it looks a lot like I have been mauled by a tiger! It really needs to be ironed before wearing but ( although none of my clothes have ever dissolved like this before) I strongly suspect that It cannot tolerate an iron!

I really love the style, cut and fit of this top. In fact, as soon as I received it, I ordered another. Each were $38. I know that linen has a breaking in period of washing and wearing, but after 5 washes, the fabric was still Very STIFF AND SCRATCHY, so I soaked the tops in baking soda for a whole week to try to soften them. That didn't work so I resorted to fabric softener which you should not use on Linen. That didn't work either. On good linen, you would never need it. Good linen softens to a supple beautiful fabric. For the price, I feel I should have received higher grade linen. These are worth about $6 each. I feel robbed.

The bust is very snug but the armpit area is oddly loose and blousey. It looks odd. The embroidery is also more prominent and appears to cover more of the front of the garment than pictured. Overall, the fit is boxy and poorly proportioned. If there were more chest area I would say the sizing is right, just designed for smaller busted women.

This product is so poorly made and the material is poor quality too. The sleeves are uneven, the shape is uneven and it feels like you're wearing a tent. The embroidery is pretty ,but in general, the top looks very different than the photo. Its thin and not particularly sheer, ( i bought the dark gray)which works for those hot humid days but I wouldn't wear this outside of my house.
