Raquel is a form-fitting blouse with a defined waist, back shoulder darts moved to the neckline, long front ties, and a deep V-cut neckline adorned with an attached flounce and bias binding. The long set-in sleeves flare at the bottom and include elasticated casings at the wrists. Raquel's length falls above the waist. Pair this blouse with the Polly Skirt for a super cute matching co-ord set for summer.
