peasant blouse

Loose embroidered garment

A peasant blouse is a loose-fitting women's top with a wide neckline, often elasticized or gathered, and full sleeves.

The style draws on traditional European folk clothing, featuring details like embroidery, smocking, or ruffled edges: She paired a white peasant blouse with jeans.

The look became fashionable in the 1960s and 70s and remains a bohemian wardrobe staple.
