PEGGY | Printed blouse for warm days

It was a hundred and six and I was the only one at the table not fanning myself with a menu.

By the second week of June the wardrobe has shrunk to four things, and all four of them are chosen for temperature rather than for how they look. That is how you end up at a birthday lunch in something you would not have picked in March. Peggy is a warm weather blouse that was not designed around surrender.

The fabric is lightweight and open enough to breathe, so heat moves out instead of sitting against you. It flows over the body rather than resting on it, which keeps it from sticking anywhere on the walk in from the parking lot. And it is printed rather than plain, which is what stops it looking like something you wore because it was the coolest thing in the drawer.

Why women our age keep coming back to it

• It is built for real heat. Lightweight and breathable, which is a different thing from thin, and it is why this one gets worn through July rather than stored.
• It flows instead of clinging. The drape keeps the fabric off the skin, so there is no damp patch where a top has been sitting against your back in the car.
• The print does the dressing. A patterned blouse over plain wide leg pants is a whole outfit, and the print is quiet enough not to announce itself.
• Sizes through 5XL, and it washes at home. Machine washable, so it goes in with everything else after a hot day rather than waiting for a special load.

How it fits

Peggy is relaxed and flowing and runs true to size, in S through 5XL. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one, because the whole point is that the fabric hangs away from you and a close fit gives that back on the first hot afternoon. The size chart has the flat measurements in inches.

A few recent reviews

I wore it to an outdoor graduation in June and survived it. That is my whole review.

Took two on a cruise and they came out of the case without a wrinkle in them.

I am a 4XL and it is generous through the hip, which most of them are not.
