Material Composition
The blouse is constructed entirely from cotton, a natural cellulose fiber known for its breathability, moisture absorption, and soft surface texture. Cotton provides the body and structure needed to support the oversized balloon sleeve silhouette without weighing the fabric down, and it holds color well across repeated washing cycles. There is no stretch in the base fabric, though the smocked wrist cuffs are elasticated in construction, providing give at the sleeve opening independent of the fabric's non-stretch properties.
Construction Details
The blouse features a deep V-neckline bordered on both sides by a contrast leopard-print trim strip running from the neckline opening toward the hem (image-inferred). The sleeves are set with generous volume from the shoulder seam and gathered into a smocked elastic band at the wrist, which finishes in a ruffle cuff detail (image-inferred). The body is cut relaxed through the chest and hem with a straight silhouette that sits away from the torso (image-inferred). There is no visible collar - the V-neckline is finished with the trim border only (image-inferred).

Care Instructions
Machine wash cold, tumble dry low. Low-heat drying protects both the cotton fabric's shape and the smocked cuffs' elasticated construction, maintaining the sleeve's structured balloon silhouette through regular use.
