A plain white linen Giorgio Armani blouse from the 1990s.
The linen is fine and slubbed, lightly sheer, with a soft, creased hand that gets better with wear. A stand collar closes with pale butter yellow buttons down the front, and two flat patch pockets sit high on the chest. The short sleeves finish in a turned cuff, and the hem curves, longer at the centre front, so the blouse falls with a slight tail.
Worn here with wide black trousers, it needs nothing added. It also works tucked into a high waist or open over a slip dress in summer.
A classic piece from Armaniβs 1990s wardrobe, where the proportion and the fabric speak. For collectors of Italian minimalism who want one perfect white shirt.
