Silver satin with a high shine, cut generously through the body so the fabric moves rather than lying flat. The collar comes to a clean point and the front buttons up to the collar stand in pale pearl look buttons. Sleeves run full to the wrist and gather into a single button cuff. Across the back a yoke seam releases into a centre inverted pleat, which is where the ease through the shoulders comes from, and the hem curves gently at the sides.

Wear it tucked into a straight skirt as shown here, or leave it loose over something slim for a longer line. The shine does plenty on its own, so you can either keep the rest quiet with mnimalist jewels and footwear or, go nuts with oversized statement pieces that will tone down he shine. A black blazer over the top sharpens the whole thing. If you like a shirt you can move in, this one gives you plenty of room.
