Also, the fabric needs to be very soft and drapey. So denim is not ideal, and neither is a shorter neck for this particular denim bowed blouse. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-that-denim-blouse-with-bow#post-1690504 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 10:18:35 +0000 Staysfit 1690504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was also attracted to the denim bow blouse. I had the opposite worry though! I wondered what would happen on someone like me who has a small chest! Ha ha! I also wondered how stiff and thick/scratchy the denim of the blouse might be? I love a bow blouse but it can quickly turn twee or overwhelming and boxy on my lanky figure if the proportion and texture aren't just right. </p> <p>The description says slim cut. It also comes in a darker color for those who have that preference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-that-denim-blouse-with-bow#post-1690316 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 22:51:30 +0000 BrieN 1690316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa: those Kate Moss blouses are beautiful..I can't imagine wearing the ties undone like that...but maybe I would surprise myself. And..ShopBop? Why have I never seen this site before. Wow, I could get in trouble shopping there!</p> <p>Amy: that's what I was afraid of. Thanks for the input. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-that-denim-blouse-with-bow#post-1690213 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 18:10:59 +0000 Amy 1690213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Generally high collars and stiff fabrics don't do many favors to full busts. Lots of fabric on the front, such as bows and ruffles also accentuate a bust, so if your priority is to minimize that area, I'd steer clear of bows and ruffles.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-that-denim-blouse-with-bow#post-1690176 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 14:57:21 +0000 Anonymous 1690176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not Angie, clearly, but having made some major sartorial faux pas with ties and bows on blouses, I don't think &nbsp;they &nbsp;work well on those of us with larger chests. &nbsp;Flowier is better of course, as is leaving the tie at the neck undone (just looped, as opposed to tied in a bow) . See the new Kate Moss for Equipment shirts for inspiration ...:) &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-that-denim-blouse-with-bow#post-1690173 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 14:50:30 +0000 BrieN 1690173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can we talk about the denim blouse with bow - or any blouse with bow? Would you say this particular top would look better on less curvy figures? What about the same type of blouse in a more flowy material? Or with a somewhat deeper neckline? I am drawn to these tops but unsure they will flatter me. &nbsp;<br />TIA </p>
