Thai-Lao Button Blouse

A button-front blouse for formal Thai or Lao dress. The neck is a deep V. The sleeves are full, gathered at the shoulder and left loose down the arm. Cloth-covered buttons close the center front. The hem flares, and the front edge ends in a soft point. The cloth has a sheen. The fiber is not named, so wash it the way the inside label says.

Naree selected these on a buying trip in Thailand or Laos. The blouse is the top half of that formal outfit. The wrapped skirt is not included.

Size 40 and size 42 are the numbers on the label, not US letter sizes. No bust or length is printed. These are the pieces in stock:

• Gold, size 42
• Light purple, size 42
• Cream, size 40
• Cream, size 42
• Silver, size 40

Gold and light purple are not offered in size 40. Silver is not offered in size 42.
