The Etta Blouse is informed by late-19th century childrenswear, when volume was introduced through cut and gather rather than tailoring.
A high neckline draws the fabric in gently, finished with a narrow frill that frames the collar without taking over. The blouse is worn loose, with fullness created at the neck and allowed to fall through the body.
Raglan balloon sleeves give Etta its character. Cut wide and rounded, they carry volume through the arm before finishing in a buttoned cuff with a subtle frill — practical, considered, and balanced.
Rendered in a deep charcoal grey, somewhere between slate and shadow, Etta feels familiar without nostalgia. A blouse that understands its references, but doesn’t rely on them.
