I wasn’t sure that this top would live up to its high rating.
Well, it did.
Personally, I don’t like wrinkles, am not always a fan of 100% cotton shirts, and especially, I don’t like see-through fabrics and contrasting buttons.
But for this shirt, my vote is WOW about everything!
Very nice styling and cut. I’m 5’3” 120lb and bought the small. It was a little too oversized but after washing and drying, the top shrank as I would have expected for a nicely oversized cotton.
Yes, about some reviewers’ comments, that the white is a bit transparent and the garment wrinkly.
But as a white cotton over-shirt, its look is classic. And a lot of the wrinkles immediately shook out, and once put on, the garment quickly took on a classic fit and ease…that gauzy look of an old-style, light-weight topper.
That style was in the past often achieved with light-weight muslin, a fabric that would frequently rip, pill, fall apart, and too often, was clingy.
But be aware that this shirt’s fabric is substantial and in fact, I don’t expect such issues. Considering its weight and drape, it might (as my mother might have said) “live through several wars.”
As I’d hope, whatever breeze’s were about the day I wore the top, they passed through the shirt and cooled the skin. Just like you’d expect from cotton versus synthetic fiber fabric.
Regarding the top’s contrasting buttons, I like the buttons. Turns out they are a nice, defining detail on this white, casual, softly-shaped shirt.
I’m pretty sure I’ll be buying more of these shirts.
