De Beauvoir Blouse Cream Tea Stripe with Existential Scallop Embroidery
The De Beauvoir Blouse: For women with a mind of their own
Scallops are a girl’s best friend, so enter the De Beauvoir Blouse, featuring bold scallop embroidery on the collar, cuffs and button placket. Named after the mother of modern day feminism, Simone De Beauvoir, this blouse’s stand out embroidery echos the bold views of its outspoken namesake. The frill collar and cuffs are the perfect accoutrement for budding intellectuals, while the fabulous embroidery in existential white offers a glimpse of the iron lady within. Made of a lightweight fine red stripe cotton, this is a blouse for women with a mind of their own. Chic yet versatile, pair with white jeans and a market bag for impeccable laissez-faire style. *Following feedback from customers, the length is shorter than previous seasons. See measurements below.*

Due the way our hand smocked pieces are pleated and sewn, our clothes offer a very versatile fit - there is natural stretch in all hand pleated smocks. For this reason we offer fewer, bridge sizes. This means more room for growth and less waste.
Below you will find measurements for our Girls' and Women's Sizes. Please note that as our pieces are made by hand, there will be natural variation between pieces so the measurements below are approximate. If you have any questions, do come and talk to us hello@smocklondon.com.
All measurements in centimetres.
Kids Sizing
Kid's Fit
In general our girl's fit is “Classic British” meaning dresses are designed to hit just below the knee and blouses sit at the lower waist level. At the beginning of the age range dresses will reach to mid calf; at the upper end of the range they will hit above the knee.
Most of our styles will comfortably fit your child beyond the age range specified: elasticated sleeves, tie straps and sashes allow you get as much as possible from each outfit. Better for you and better for the planet.
