Ribbon-tie blouse - Blush/Flax
Ribbon-tie blouse - Blush/Flax
A slightly cropped blouse replete with thoughtful detail.
Behind generous self-fabric ribbon ties lies a concealed button placket to keep everything in order and retain the calm, uncluttered lines that characterise our garments. Balloon sleeves easily compliment the texture and weight of generously draped linen, ending in a gathered stretch cuff for ease and subtle fullness.
Wear fastened all the way for a neat, feminine feel, undone part-way for an easy-going look, or perhaps even undone as a light outer layer.
Please note this is a Made to order style and will be made within 2-3 weeks of placing your order.
Details:
100% natural corozo buttons derived from the nut of the tagua palm tree
Self-fabric adjustable ribbon ties
Generous balloon sleeves with a gathered elasticated cuff

BLUSH/FLAX GINGHAM
Pictured here in a blush / flax gingham linen; a muted combination that strikes a balance between neutrality and feminine warmth.
Eco Credentials:
Flax is a strong plant best grown in northern Europe. It needs little to no fertilisers, and due to the local climate, little extra water. It doesn’t require many pesticides either, as it can grow in poor quality soil. The Advisory Commission Report to the European Parliament stated that flax cultivation has positive effects on eco-system diversity as it allows for an “environmental pause”. One hectare of flax can retain 3.7 tonnes of CO2. Every part of the plant is used, and what isn’t used to produce linen can be utilised to make linseed oil, paper, cattle feed, or even soap.
Linen is almost naturally organic. It’s completely biodegradable, recyclable, and due to its natural absorbency, requires less dye than cotton. Linen therefore scores high on the ecological chart.
Care Hand or machine wash on gentle setting using cold water, Do not tumble dry. Steam press on medium setting for a crisp finish or hang dry and wear gently wrinkled for a lived in look.
Manufacture
This garment will be carefully individually cut and sewn in small batches in our Oakham, Rutland design studio (England).
