Why a chic black blouse is a wardrobe staple

A chic black blouse can elevate any outfit … whether you’re going for an all-black look, smart or even dressing for a casual braai at a friends’ house. And, since you can style it in all sorts of ways, you can get away with wearing it to many different gatherings with the same group of friends and not look like you’re repeating the same look.

While you may spend a little more upfront for a buy-now-wear-forever fashion piece, your price-per-wear will exceed any fast fashion black blouse you may buy.

Take a look at the gallery below. We’ve paired the same hand-stitched one-shoulder puff-sleeve blouse with…
- Wide-leg denim jeans and pointed-toe heels for a smart-casual date night look (a little throwback to the 90s).
- Denim shorts and chunky sandals for a casual braai.
- And a pleated skirt and pointed-toe heels for an elegant evening event or even a great wedding guest outfit…

Timeless in trend
With a single puff sleeve, a peplum and a wrap-around belt to cinch the waistline, this blouse has a classic and timeless quality (puff sleeves have been popular since the 1830s and belted fashion styles since 1866).

Timeless in quality
The blouse was cut in black rayon cotton so it's super-soft and, it was hand-stitched by artisans in Mumbai. With just one puffed sleeve, this blouse gives your look sharp contrast, and the cinched-in waist with side tie-up is super flattering.

We stock it in sizes ranging from XS to XL and the fit is true-to-size.
