The Seine Blouse is inspired by the classic breton sweater with a romantic twist. The nautical elements of the stripes and boat neckline are combined with sweet spring colours and elegantly shaped body and bishop sleeves. The body of the Seine sweater is tapered towards the waist while the sleeves flare out from the elbow down and gather again at the wrists, creating a classic silhouette. The top of the shoulders are gathered with pleats. The Seine Blouse is a lightweight, fine sweater that is perfect to wear in spring and autumn and on colder summer evenings.
