Azure Eyelash Short Sleeve Blouse

"Fit to Print": Stare closely at a newspaper...wait. Nobody gets the paper anymore?

Halftone pattern on the sleeve, magnified. This dotted pattern is what makes up the images in traditional print. You know that. But generations after us might not? Look closely and you can make out the objects. They are flowers. Up close, they are simply graphics, reminiscent of Pop Art.

3/4 sleeves with gathered cuff. V-neck. Sleeve cotton is fine and smooth, a print imported from Italy.  Black knit body.

100% cotton sleeve. 95% Cotton 5% Spandex shell.
Machine wash cold, air dry. Do not put in dryer. Warm iron if needed.
Made in the USA of imported fabric. 

Your top may be made to order. Allow appx. 2 weeks to sew it for you before it ships.

All Signature Tops have the same knit properties and shape through the body (they all use the same pattern pieces for the torso), the same as our Signature Tee fit. We look for new creative fabric pairings each season to continue to offer this popular style in rare and exciting combinations.

This print is a casually sketched red floral on a cream field. 

Keeping some of the best parts of a classic shirt—a back yoke, gathered detail at center back, the rounded shirttail hem—and styling it into an easy popover blouse. A semi-tailored look. Rounded neckline complements necklaces and scarves and 3/4 sleeves show off all of your favorite bracelets. 

It's good at covering belly and/or tucking in, and hides most of the rear, but we don't think it's a tunic in the sense that it doesn't cover a lot of thigh.

This style is a popular one, so we make them using different fabrics of varying fibers both casual and fine, each season has new releases. See other listings for more.

Machine wash cold, air dry. Iron on cotton setting if desired.
100% Cotton, imported.
Sewn in the USA.

A friendly combination of shirtings, a plaid and a dot. Both fabrics play well together, have similar weight and opacity. We had some fun pairing them up on the cutting table, and love the surprising balance that resulted.

The cotton plaid is yarn-dyed with a puckered texture, relaxed and easy to care for. The dots are a favorite fabric around our workshop—a cotton/linen blend with adorable tactile tufts known as "swiss dots". Natural yarn dyed threads have a varied, unbleached appearance.

About every signature tee:

You could say this tee has a "boyfriend fit", but don't think it's unisex, it's been designed for a woman's curves.

It's designed to drape loosely over the torso when worn true to size. It's not meant to fit snugly, but the rule of thumb is order down if you want some curves around the bust. If tight is how you roll, this is not the tee for you.

Since the brand's beginning in 2011, National Picnic Signature Tees have been reinvented with new fabrics each season. Starting in 2018, new tees in the series will be numbered so limited editions can be followed and catalogued as they come and go.

Fabrics used in signature tees can vary slightly in fiber content, weight, drape and feel, which can make a version appear to fit slightly larger or smaller—but know that each signature tee is cut from the same pattern. Differences are noted in each listing. Rarity and exceptional fabrics can affect pricing of special tees in the Signature series.

"Inkpetal": Stenciled flowers in earthy ochre, ink, terra cotta. The Arts and Crafts movement comes to mind. 

Organic cotton print sleeve. Knit body, solid black.

100% organic cotton sleeve, 95% Cotton 5% Spandex shell.
Machine wash cold, air dry. Do not put in dryer. Warm iron if needed.
Made in the USA of imported fabric. 

About every signature tee:

Signature Tees thrive on creative pairings of new fabrics each season, but it's the fit that is just as special. Not a generic tee shirt fit—they have been thoughtfully designed to fit women's figures, across a diverse range of body shapes and sizes.

It's designed to drape loosely over the torso when worn true to size, and not get stuck on the hips. Not meant to fit snugly; however, some women order a size down to show more curves through the bust area. Even then, it will still remain somewhat loose-fitting. So if tight is how you roll, this is not the tee for you.

Thanks for loving National Picnic Signature Tees! Please read each listing for each tee's "personality". Fabric combinations can vary in weight, drape or hand. The variations are intentional, adding interest and fun to the most popular style we make.
