- Does this blouse run true to size in plus sizes?
- Owners generally report it fits true to size through the body. If you are between sizes or full-busted, size up so the button front lies flat.
- Are the shirred sleeves tight on the arms?
- The shirring gives a gathered, slightly fitted sleeve. Several reviewers with fuller upper arms say it feels snug, so consider sizing up if you prefer room.
- What is the fabric and how should I care for it?
- It is a woven striped fabric with a soft hand. Follow the care label; Karen Kane pieces of this type usually call for gentle washing or dry cleaning.
- Can I wear it to the office?
- Yes. The V-neck, button front and striped print read as business casual, and it pairs well with trousers or a pencil skirt.
- How does it compare with a basic striped button-down?
- The shirred layered sleeve and softer drape make it dressier than a standard cotton button-down, which is stiffer and plainer at the shoulder.
- What colors and patterns does it come in?
- This version is a striped print. Karen Kane often releases the same silhouette in other prints and solids across seasons.
