Review on Off-Shoulder Renaissance Pirate Blouse With Smocked Short Sleeves For Victorian Steampunk Look by Leslie Smith

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wonderful blouse--now we all have them

This is a great top for casual wear, parties, or RenFaires less concerned with accuracy. My daughters and I do medieval reenactment, and for that we wear shifts with a period design and natural fibers. I've worn this top with a long skirt, or even just with denim shorts. The gathering on the sleeves and middle are all elastic, but not too tight--I'm OK in the largest size, even though it might have been questionable according to the size chart. Fortunately since I have daughters in two different smaller sizes, I knew someone would be able to use it. They both liked the way it looked so much, I ordered more (and got myself a couple more, too). It's a comfortable synthetic fabric--not sleazy feeling, and no worries about wrinkles! I am happy to say the white isn't as see-through as I was afraid it would be, so perfectly fine on its own, doesn't need anything over it.

Pros
  • 100% Polyester
Cons
  • The blouse may not be suitable for those with broad shoulders
