DOREEN | Airy V-neck for warm days

I tucked it in for lunch and left it out for dinner and it was the same blouse both times.

Warm weather tops usually pick a side. Either they are cut short and boxy so they only work tucked in, or they are long and loose and only work left out. That means two piles in the drawer and a decision every morning about what the day is going to involve. Doreen does not make you choose.

The cut is relaxed but has enough shape through the body to hold a line when it is tucked, and it is long enough to sit properly when it is not. The V-neckline opens the front and keeps the whole thing from looking like a T-shirt. The fabric is light and airy, which is the point of it in April and the reason it is still in rotation in August.

Why women our age keep coming back to it

• It works tucked and untucked. Enough shape to hold a waistband and enough length to hang on its own, so one blouse covers both versions of the day.
• The V-neck does the lifting. An open neckline draws the eye up and down rather than across, which is what stops a simple cut from looking plain.
• Airy rather than thin. The fabric moves air instead of just being lightweight, which is the difference between cool at a patio lunch and cool only in the shade.
• Four colors and none of them heavy. Pink, white, green and purple, all of which suit the season the blouse is built for.

How it fits

Doreen is a relaxed cut with a little structure and runs true to size, in S through 3XL. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one, because the tucked version needs fabric to gather at the waist and a snug size leaves you nothing to work with. The size chart has the flat measurements in inches.

Bought the white and then the pink two weeks later. They wash well and dry fast.

The V is deep enough to be flattering and not deep enough to worry about.
