Highly Recommended New Independent of the Year
Description

There's something quietly magical about a white blouse scattered with tiny gold diamonds — it catches the light when you move, and you'll notice people noticing. Cut from whisper-light cotton with the slimmest thread of metallic to give it that subtle shimmer, Carmen has a relaxed, slightly oversized cut, soft puff sleeves with neat elasticated cuffs, and the prettiest openwork detail running along the shoulder seams.

Buttons all the way down the front mean you can wear it closed and tucked, half-undone over a vest, or thrown open over a swimsuit on holiday. It's the kind of top that quietly does more than its job description suggests.
Features
  • Fit: Relaxed, slightly oversized — true to size, but Wardrobe 44 themselves recommend sizing down if you prefer a neater fit.
  • Neckline: Round neck with a small front placket.
  • Sleeves: Three-quarter puff sleeves with elasticated cuffs.
  • Fastening: Button-through front with tonal buttons.
  • Detail: Exquisite lace inserts along the shoulder seams; scattered gold foil embroidery across the body.
  • Fabric: Lightweight, slightly sheer woven cotton — 99% responsibly-sourced cotton, 1% metallic yarn. A quiet eco credit on top of everything else.
  • Origin: Designed by Wardrobe 44; made in India and shipped by sea (another tick in the sustainability column).
Care Instructions

Gentle hand wash or a cool, delicate machine cycle inside a laundry bag is best — the metallic yarn doesn't take kindly to heat or harsh detergents. Lay flat to dry. Iron on a cool setting on the reverse and avoid pressing directly onto the gold foil embroidery, which will protect both the shimmer and the lace insets.
Size Guide

How to Measure Yourself Correctly

Achieve the perfect fit by following these simple measurement steps:

  • Chest/Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape measure horizontal.
  • Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your waist, just above your navel.
  • Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and bottom, with your feed together.

Ensure the tape measure is snug, but not tight, and parallel to the floor.

*If you fall between sizes, we recommend sizing up for comfort and layering or down if you prefer a snug fit.

Available 8 through to 12. True to size, but cut as a loose, slightly oversized blouse — Wardrobe 44 recommend sizing down if you'd like a neater fit.

  • Hil (5'3", UK 10/12, 34EE bust, apple-shaped): The relaxed cut works as long as you keep it neat at the top. Hil would size down to the 10 to stop the puff sleeves and volume swamping her shoulders, then tuck into a high-rise jean and belt at the true waist. The round neck sits beautifully off-collarbone with a long pendant.
  • Sue (5'0", UK 6): A clean fit in the 8 — Sue would tuck (always) into her cropped Keira jeans from Toxik, with a fine vest underneath as the cloth is a touch sheer.

Lightweight cotton like this has no stretch but softens and improves with every wash. It will crinkle — lean into it.
Why We Love It

A white blouse with quiet sparkle is the single most useful thing in a summer wardrobe, and Carmen is exactly that. It dresses up with linen trousers and statement earrings, dresses down with denim and bare feet, and the gold dots mean you barely need jewellery. We're already wearing ours on repeat.
Styling Suggestions
  • Hil (UK 10): Tucked into white wide-leg linen trousers, belted at the waist with a tan leather belt, long gold pendant skimming the placket, tortoiseshell sunglasses on her head. For evening, swap to a black pencil skirt and gold hoops.
  • Sue (UK 8): Tucked into her cropped Keira jeans from Toxik with stacked gold bracelets, a layered gold necklace and chunky tan sandals. She'd throw a denim jacket over the top for a beer garden in May.
