This polka dot blouse is the kind of effortlessly charming top that makes dressing feel genuinely fun again. The bold dot print on a relaxed, floaty body is instantly appealing, but it's the smocked elasticated waist panel that really makes this blouse special — gathering the fabric into a defined, flattering midsection that creates a peplum-like flare below and a beautifully feminine silhouette overall. Pretty, playful and completely wearable.

Cut from a lightweight woven fabric with a soft, fluid drape, this puff sleeve top features a gathered round neckline that sits loosely at the collarbone, wide short puff sleeves that add volume and movement at the shoulder, and a double-row elasticated smocked waist that cinches and defines without feeling restrictive. The hem falls just below the hip in a relaxed, slightly flared finish that pairs perfectly with straight leg jeans, wide leg trousers or a midi skirt for an effortlessly put-together everyday look.
