This is a drapey blouse with a lovely, feminine cut. The buttons don't go all the way to the top so it creates a natural v-neck. There are also darts in the back so it's really flattering. The color is maroon, true to the photo with the James Perse tag, NOT as purple as some of the other photos. The fabric is a really nice crepe that hangs beautifully. It's wrinkled right now but in excellent condition. Just doesn't fit me anymore. :(
