Front and back darts pull the shape in at the waist, and the hem stops short — it's a cropped cut, so it sits above the hip rather than over it. Customers pair it with high-waisted trousers or a long skirt where a tucked shirt would bulk up at the waistband.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize stocked\u003c\/strong\u003e — Small\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour stocked\u003c\/strong\u003e — Teal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut\u003c\/strong\u003e — cropped length, waist defined, darted front and back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% rayon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel\u003c\/strong\u003e — Shannon Marie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a fitted blouse, not a relaxed one — darts mean the waist is shaped in and there is no extra room to borrow. Check the size chart measurements against your own bust and waist before ordering; a darted garment doesn't forgive an inch the way a straight-cut aloha shirt will. Rayon drapes close and does not stretch, so if you're between sizes on the chart, this one won't give. The cropped hem sits higher than a standard blouse, which is worth knowing if you were planning to tuck it — it isn't cut for tucking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDinner out, a gallery opening, hula class, office days where a print is fine but a loose shirt isn't. It also works under a light cardigan for cooler evenings without adding bulk at the waist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold wash or dry clean, hang to dry, warm iron. Keep rayon out of a hot dryer — heat is what shrinks it, and a fitted blouse has no room to lose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Shop MauiShirts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelling Hawaiian clothing from our Maui showroom since 1998 — 28 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe publish the size chart and tell you when a cut runs close\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFit questions answered before you order, by a person on the phone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping to anywhere in the USA and its territories — no minimum order.

Should I here?\u003c\/strong\u003e Sizing up won't help the shape — the darts move with the size, so a larger size is a larger fitted blouse, not a looser one. Go by the chart measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I wear it to a wedding?\u003c\/strong\u003e It reads dressy enough for a reception or rehearsal dinner.
