Sounds interesting, but hard to visualize. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruched--placket-blouse-for-waist-definition-trend#post-1724230 Wed, 07 Sep 2016 00:14:29 +0000 unfrumped 1724230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've already got some tucked- in looks ready for waist definition, but still like to have some untucked top options. Usually these would either be shorter, boxy ( for skirts) of longer, fluid fit knits for pants.<br /> I have usually eschewed ruched- placket shirts because they just didn't look right on me. Too wrinkly in woven, too tight, too ? Youthful or something, and ruching was distracting. </p> <p>Recently I came across some print ruched front tops in a drapey poly( poly could be s problem, but less for F/ W).<br /> I was first drawn in because of an olive-y color in the print, for my olive capsule. I assumed the ruching would not work. But, the dark print makes it less obvious while the ruching, along with kind of sizing up, gives a kind of drapey waist definition in a shirt that looks appropriate untucked. </p> <p>It may be kind of retro -- does this sound sort of back to the 70's, or 80's maybe? but I think I will give it a whirl. </p>
