By this point in the year, my wardrobe is well stocked with the basics. Think soft linen pieces, easy jersey and enough summer dresses to see me through until autumn. Yet lately, when I plan my outfits, I find myself craving something new: a romantic blouse. Looking for a pretty piece that feels equal parts elevated and whimsical, I was sold when I stumbled across my favourite fashion people wearing sleeveless, embroidered cotton blouses.
In my search for something softer and more ethereal than white tees, this blouse kept cropping up. Defined by its lace trims, breezy cotton fabric and delicate detailing, it marries the pretty texture of broderie-anglaise blouses with a sleeveless body; perfect for hot days. The chicest people on my feed have already adopted the trend, proving that you can never go wrong with a good blouse to breathe new life into your summer rotation. Trusty “jeans and a nice top” ‘fits are lent a soft, dreamy contrast, whilst swishy cotton-poplin skirts are elevated with an ultra-feminine finish.
Whether the style set is wearing theirs with juxtaposing sports shorts, luxe satin trousers or straight-leg jeans, it’s clear this style will be everywhere this summer. Better yet, there are plenty of affordable options on the high street. Scroll down to shop the 15 best sleeveless embroidered cotton blouses right now.
