Description
An oversized viscose blouse with a small stand-up collar
This oversized viscose blouse by Nife is cut wide on purpose. Size 36 already measures 116 cm around the chest, so there is air between you and the fabric, and the shoulders drop a little down the arm.
The neckline is the quiet detail. A low stand-up collar, one button you can see and a covered placket that runs to halfway down the front. The sleeves are long and end in a cuff.

The piece: one Nife blouse, four colours
Nife describes the blouse as a mix of freedom and elegance, made of lightweight viscose that is pleasant to the touch. Each colour has its own model number and the same size table.
The colours we can supply are white, brown, green and navy blue. A note on the white: the wholesaler's data calls model 217584 beige, while the photos show a white blouse, so expect white or a soft off-white.
From the back you see a yoke across the shoulders with a pleat under it. That pleat gives the back its width and lets the fabric swing when you move.
Who it's for
For you if you want a blouse for work that does not pull across the bust or the upper arms. With this much room it simply cannot.
It suits people who tuck a blouse into high-waisted trousers and let it blouse over the waistband. If you prefer a slim, fitted shirt, this cut will feel like too much fabric.

Fabric and feel: 100% viscose
The blouse is 100% viscose. Viscose drapes; it hangs in soft folds instead of standing stiff like a crisp shirt fabric, and it feels cool on the skin. The maker calls it lightweight and pleasant to the touch.
In the photos the fabric has a soft sheen, most visible in the white and the pale colours. There is no stretch fibre in the composition. With this cut you will not miss it.
Fit and silhouette: wide chest, hip length
The table gives the chest of the garment: 116 cm in size 36, 120 cm in 38, 124 cm in 40 and 128 cm in 42. Total length grows by one centimetre per size, from 64 cm to 67 cm, which ends around the hip on most people.
Take your usual size for the look in the photos. If you want it less roomy you could go a size down, but check the length first, because a size down is also a centimetre shorter.

Source: the maker's size table, the same for all colours. The chest figures are far larger than body sizes, so they are garment measurements.
Styling: tuck it in
Every photo shows the blouse tucked into wide, high-waisted trousers. That balance works: volume on top, a clear waist, a long leg. Grey check, black and cobalt blue trousers all appear in the gallery.
You can also wear it loose over slim trousers or a pencil skirt, with the cuffs turned back once. Leave the collar button open for a small V.
Occasions
The maker names everyday, office and smart casual outfits. We agree, and the navy and the white are the safest for a formal workplace.
The sage green and the brown are nice for a dinner or a day out, when you want something softer than a white shirt.
Care: follow the label
The maker's data has no washing instructions, so follow the label sewn into the blouse.
Viscose in general is delicate when wet and can shrink in a hot wash. Many people wash it cool, skip the dryer and press it on a low setting while it is still slightly damp. The label has the last word.
The wow detail: the hidden buttons
A normal shirt shows a row of buttons. Here they sit under a strip of fabric, and only the top one is on view. The front stays clean, like a tunic, and the stand-up collar finishes it without a tie or a necklace. It is a calm front for a wide blouse, which needs that.
