The mother of all blouses? That's Libbie! A comfortable basic with straight sleeves that are pleated at the wrists and finished with mitred cuffs for a classy, feminine touch. The rounded hem and centre-back pleat create a flowing effect. Would you prefer a more tailored fit? Add an extra button placket on top of the existing one and an extra button at the waist. Libbie is your go-to blouse that you can endlessly adapt and reinvent.
Lee is a variation on Libbie, featuring a surprisingly airy back slit instead of a centre-back pleat. The deep slit makes Lee perfect for warm late summer days or for wearing over a pretty top or bralette. Combine comfort with elegance and experiment with different fabrics for a different effect every time.
Logan is a variation on Libbie, featuring a straight hem, side slits, and wide sleeves that gather elegantly at the cuff and are secured with a cufflink. The tie inserted into the button placket is the standout detail of this classic shirt: knot it together with the hidden tie in the left side seam for that contemporary look. Mix and match with fabrics, prints and textures to create your own unique statement shirt.
Lydia is a short, fresh take on Libbie. The patch pocket hangs casually over the straight hem, giving the blouse a cool, laid-back look. The straight sleeves with two pleats at the cuff, along with the pocket and the classic cuffs, complete the design. It's for a cropped, carefree silhouette, and it pairs well with high-waisted trousers or a skirt.
Lena is a unique variation on Libbie, with a twist on the sleeves and cuffs – they are fastened with twill tape and D-rings. The front and back panels have a rounded hem, while the sleeves are straight and wide, without pleats. In short, it's a a cool and stylish blouse that dares to be just a little bit different.

RECOMMENDED FABRICS:
Libbie, Lee & Logan: Total freedom, yeah! Bring this design to life in stonewashed poplin, modal, lyocell, linen, seersucker, chambray, woven viscose, fine corduroy or broderie anglaise. From plain, subtle prints to brightly coloured stripes, checks and floral patterns – feel free to try anything.
Lydia: The boxy shape really comes into its own in a woven fabric such as poplin (stonewashed, paper-touch or nylon-touch) or textured cotton. If you prefer a blouse with a softer touch and look, go for a drapier fabric like double gauze, chambray or viscose crepe.
Lena: Stiffer, sturdy fabrics such as stonewashed cotton, poplin with a paper or nylon feel, linen, nylon or taffeta are recommended as they provide enough structure to support the D-rings that give Lena its unique look. If you leave out the rings and your twill tape is not too heavy (for example, if you make them from the same fabric and tie them in a knot), you can safely choose supple fabrics such as viscose (crepe), modal or viscose satin.
