…………………Memorial Day is here!…..and the unofficial start of summer has begun…..However….WHITE is now officially allowed, and there isn’t a better way to start then introducing ….A273867…. the new…….WHITE GAUZE TUNIC…….You have seen glimpses of this top already, and now here it is………..It is made in the same fabric as the zip front gauze jacket, A276280……Thinking of adjectives to describe this new tunic…the word that kept popping into my head was….PRISTINE………Every detail…every finish was done to give this top the look and feel of weightlessness…….There are no extra facings to add bulk or weight….the neckline is PIPED, the hems are narrow, and the 3/4 sleeve has a tab and a large REAL SHELL BUTTON for an easy roll up. The sample on my form is an XS. The front length is approx. 28 1/2 inches and the back is approx. 2 3/8 ths inches longer than the front….for a well proportioned HIGH/LOW hem. The side slits gives the top a nice airy flowing effect…….This is an EASY FIT garment….YES, it is slightly over sized, but that is the look!!!!! I know the words over sized sends shivers up the backs of some of you so check the MEASUREMENTS!…..Truly….the only issue I see is for those who have very narrow shoulders…so please check out the shoulder measurement and neck opening……You may be able to size down one size it the bust measurement works for you…..Other than that I see no problems. This top should stand away from the body to allow air flow on those hot sticky days For the great majority of you your normal size should be just fine, and the way it’s supposed to look…..The cover of the new Women’s Wear Daily Magazine claims….OVER SIZED is wear it’s at….Well, it’s true that that is the direction….wider leg pants, whether long or cropped are definitely the new thing. Let’s face it skinny has been around quite a long time….it had to happen. I was never a believer in the “it has to be one look” philosophy, one way excluding all others is a bore…….”Variety is the spice of life” is definitely my mantra………….I think this is the perfect tunic….simple and easy uncomplicated, and unadorned…..This is the perfect background for all of your Linea Jewelry…..The PALM FROND short necklace, J290362, the long PALM FROND necklace, J290364, and the PALM FROND earring, J290363, all in GUNMETAL above……..For a very different look that has a very Caribbean vibe….the WATER FALL NECKLACE AND EARRING SET in white, J321804…The School of fish necklace….the three strand Nugget necklace, and the Egyptian bead necklace for example would all look great on this tunic top…..For the bottoms above…..A265615, the slim Grey pant, A262070/A262072, the white Linea Leisure pull on pant [all the colors look great]. Not pictured but recommended with the tunic are the A274374, Linea Body Capri legging [more coming in by 6/6] or the Linea Body classic legging, the new Cropped Gaucho and the new long Gauze Crepe pant. Any pencil skirt including the new WK skirt, A273880, will give the tunic a dressier look…….Going away on a trip or just going out with friends this will be the perfect COMFORTABLE choice……………………………………………………………………
…………………………enjoy………………..much Love……………..Louis
