What is it?
To begin with, let's look at the terminology and draw a distinction between a shirt, shirt, shirt and tunic. Although there is some confusion in the use of these names, we will adhere to a more precise definition of a blouson as one of the types of women's blouses that are worn without fail.
The less stringent distinctive features of a blouson include:
- an elongated silhouette (while blouses and shirts come in different lengths);
- loose fit (as opposed to a blouse that can be fitted);
- belt, elastic band or drawstring at the bottom of the product (which distinguishes the shirt from the tunic).
Models
Blouson takes a strong position in the wardrobe of fashionistas for more than one decade, and the abundance of models and styles that appeared during its existence excites the imagination.
The classic model of a blouson is more like a light jacket, an essential element of which is the drawstring or elastic band on the bottom edge. Like a regular jacket, such a shirt can have a hood and a zipper. This model is sporting style.
An elegant model of a blouson, usually made of thin knitted material, has a smooth flowing texture, bat sleeves and a tight waist belt. This model is very advantageous for its ability to combine with a huge number of things. A properly selected accessories will give a simple composition of completeness and sophistication.
Long sleeves with a thin belt on the hips - a good part of the wardrobe, even if your proportions are not perfect. Such a shirt visually lengthens and pulls the figure. Sewn from fine cotton with the addition of viscose, it fits perfectly into a casual look, and when choosing a more elegant type of fabric (chiffon, satin, silk) it will look romantic.
Although initially a blueson was understood to be free-cut things, today, in the current fashion trends, there were also blousons of a fitting silhouette. As a rule, they are characterized by the absence of a collar, a round neckline, a long sleeve and a length to the middle of the thigh.
Materials
The very idea of a blouson suggests that it should be sewn from the most comfortable fabric with a light flowing texture. Among the most popular fabrics, as if created for a product of this type, one can first of all call fine knitwear, chiffon, artificial and natural silk.
However, as there are no rules without exceptions, so among the blousons you can find very original copies of cotton, wool and even mohair. And even one summer wardrobe does not do without knitted knitted blousons. Interesting options are obtained when combining diverse materials and textures, as in the images in the photo.

What to wear?
Since the jumper automatically draws attention to the upper part of the body with its texture, in most cases the lower part of the ensemble should be restrained.
The volume and lightness of chiffon and silk top are balanced by a classic straight skirt or trousers.
The flowing texture of knitted blouson will be perfectly complemented by skin-tight leggings or skinny jeans. For more casual combinations, the use of slightly flared bottom pants and skirts is permissible.
Monochrome laconic style blousons give a wide choice in accessories. But given the femininity of this thing as such, it is not recommended to use massive metal jewelry. To enhance the emphasis on the hips, you can use a wide belt or belt. To draw attention to the upper part of the ensemble, you can use small or large beads with elements of wood and stone, brooches, earrings, rings and scarves.
