Cool Parisian blouse to wear with jeans. Help

110 replies

I really fancy a cool fitted blouse long sleeve white, to go with jeans. Came back from Paris or lots of women with this and with a perhaps khaki jacket over the top ,trainers flare jeans.

I’ve been looking everywhere and can’t find anything I like. Has to be cotton or cotton with some stretch

Anne Fontaine fan here also. Definitely worth a look.

Oh that’s gorgeous.

I’ve forgotten the name (again) but there’s a shop in Paris that only sells blouses in black and white.

I have no idea what a "Parisian blouse" is.

Eeeeekandyuckandohmygod · 24/08/2024 14:46

Have you tried Hawes & Curtis?

Monsoon?

There's a YouTube channel called Parisian Vibe which, if you can get past the rather smug and humourless patina of some of the the presenters, gives you the low-down on that particular code. The Parisian way to wear a shirt is apparently oversized, so you can tuck it in partially, have it open 2 or 3 buttons, fairly flappy sort of cuffs that you can wear long or roll back and push up. Cotton poplin for preference. So you can get the 'masculin/feminin' cut/drape - reveal, conceal, big and fitted simultaneously.

The Sezane Max shirt is made for this sort of look. Zara do some cotton shirts (I think of them as shirts rather than blouses) that go well like this, and about one third of the price of the Sezane Max. Everlane are cut right if you want to do silk.

Pbi but are there any 'fitted' ones?
I'm a size 8 on top with a tiny wiat but square shoulders and voluminous makes me feel huge

Webbymeister · 24/08/2024 17:54

Sorry I started this and didn’t come back to it, how rude! Yes I definitely want a blouse rather than a shirt, have the oversize thing and I’m not sure it’s the most flattering.

That love and roses one is surprisingly

The max one too big
The ones I saw were rather delicate with often some sort of detail over the front little puff sleeves.

TheGirlattheBack · 24/08/2024 21:38

This blouse is so nice. I don't mean to sound cheap but I wish it was less than 55

I've got a black one from Holland Cooper which I actually bought a size too small, it's much more flattering and my boobs are medium not huge so it works

Here's a few of their white ones

I'd like to see in person but this is my favourite so far. Good price too

EmeraldIsla · 25/08/2024 11:06

I have to stop myself ordering the Sezane Chlo in silk - love it, but I’m just not a frilly person. Love the Sezane Abelia.
