……………………..GAUZE………………is an ancient fabric……I always believed it dated back to the Egyptians, but it is actually credited to an ancient 13th century textile industry in Gaza…..hense the name….It was originally made in SILK………….Today there are many different types of gauze made in many different fibers……..from silk to cotton to linen to all types of synthetics……….The TEE SHIRT, A290928, and the PULL-ON pant, A290983 for the reg. and A290984 for the petite, are the same gauze fabric that I use for styles A276280, the zip front jacket, and A273867, and the tunic with roll-up sleeves……This “GAUZE” is not to be confused with the “CREPE GAUZE”. The styles in the crepe gauze are A287617, the stand collar button front tunic, A276293, the tank with georgette border, A287611, the V-neck tunic, A276294, the long pant, A287614, the crop pant and A288392, the new dress………Even QVC has confused the two calling the “gauze” zip jacket “crepe gauze”. I am giving you this detailed information so you know what you are buying……Neither of these has anything to do with Pebble Crepe!……………………..Not all gauze is the same!
……………………..The Tee shirt above is shown in the WHITE, and the ROYAL BLUE………The gauze pant is also shown in the Royal Blue and the White………The White pant is LINED….the Royal Blue is not……..The pant has a classic elastic waist with a center top stitch so there will not be any twisting……. There are no pockets. The leg is soft and languid, just the way you would want a summer white pant to be……………The TEE is easy and relaxed. I like the sleeve rolled up for a more casual look………The length for an xs is approx. 25 inches. There are small side slits…………….I chose to accessorize the tees with SILVER…….It has a cool and modern look. The Silver BOLD HOOP, J288005, the Silver and COBALT SLIDE DROP, J333066, the Silver 3 row RIBBON NECKLACE, and the new Silver CUFF, J335214 all give a gleaming summer shine!……………….enjoy…………much Love………………….Louis
We are excited about all the news things. Question: what other Linea blue tops (blue bell, blue ombre, etc) do these royal blue pants go with? Thank you so much for your time and consideration.
Does the royal blue gauze pants work with the bluebell floral print tunic? Do the ‘blues’ look good together?
One more question– the ombré print in blue, does this work with the royal blue pants?
No the blues are different
Yes the gauze pant and the bluebell print look good together.
Thank you.
How do you feel about sizing down on this top? If I want to wear it under A276280 zip-front gauze jacket that was in numerical sizing, I need to size down for it to fit.
check bust and shoulder measurements! This is a woven not a knit
Thanks. The bust and shoulder measurements work. The fit just won’t be so loose and airy. I’ll express ship one in the smaller size to try for wearing under the jackets, and maybe order the regular size for wearing without the jacket after I see the fit. I may need this top in two sizes in some colors.
Can you see through the white tee? These are absolutely lovely, Louis! Thank you.
no you can see through it, but you should still wear nude undergarments with anything white
I’m gonna assume that these tops will also work well with your (amazing) slim ankle pants (A265615) and moss crepe skirts (A262454)? Love to summer-ize these wardrobe staples.
Yes, a gauze tee and a moss crepe pencil and a gauze tee and slim pants….very Laura Petrie……just roll the sleeve!
Summer dressing doesn’t get any easier than a soft, flowing white top, black pants and a pair of slides or mules!
I don’t tend to wear white pants (dirty the minute I step outside!) but I think they’d be nice to have in my closet so I’ll get those too.
I also think this top will be super useful in fall and winter as a light layer under a sweater for when you need a bit of warmth–of course here in LA, this is a nearly year round top.
Louis, my silver cuff arrived yesterday, and I am so happy that I “threw that one in” at the last minute. There’s something about this latest cuff that grabbed me. Although it sounds incredibly greedy and materialistic, I decided I needed all four and bought all four. I’ve never done that previously with your cuffs (or anyone else’s, for that matter). These bracelets are beauties and should serve me well. In the end, they are extremely practical, lending themselves to everyday looks as well as dramatic moments.
Forgot to add, loving the Royal Blue.
Goldie…..greedy, I don’t think so…..practical….ABSOLUTELY….you will wear them often and all the colors are wonderful…..The chocolate and gunmetal will go with so many things it will surprise you. The silver and gold are fabulous, but sometimes you will want something bold but more subtle.
