Nice fabric - shame about the styling,
July 10, 2012
By: lainuk
from Surrey, UK
"Looking for a wash and wear shirt for my upcoming tropical trip, I thought this would be perfect. Loved the fabric, the styling was terrible though - in fact there was no shape at all. It would have been better had there been some side vents, as the size I ordered was too snug around the hips and the shirt itself was too short. I tried to order a larger size but discovered the style had been discontinued. However if I had received the larger size then I think it would have been too big on the shoulders and bust. Take note, Orvis, women are not shaped like boxes! Some shaping would have been appreciated. As it was I simply got a full refund and ordered a more suitable shirt elsewhere."

Excellent Value,
June 28, 2012
By: Tamar
from New York, NY
"The plaid madras shirt is terrific, not only in its excellent fit, but the color of the item actually matches that in the catalog. I find this rare. I would highly recommend this item."
"I bought this unsure of the fit and bright plaid for me, but I just love this blouse. Easy care. Fits nicely whether tucked in or worn out and works with khaki, black, stone slacks. People smile at me when I wear this blouse. Or maybe I'm smiling at them."

the material is not what I expected,

"The first short-sleeve cotton blouse for the hot days that are upon us. The material in this cute blouse was hot just having it on for a short time. The material did not breathe like all other cotton."

disappointing,

By: chrisflorida
"A very attractive color, but the fabric is harsh and stiff, not the soft fabric I would have expected - I was misled by the word "Madras" as in Madras cotton."

Fabric very stiff and uncomfortable.,
August 10, 2011
By: Sudsy
from St. Louis County, MO
"I ordered the size I always wear and it was too large. I purchased it for a trip because it matched perfectly with some odd colored jeans, but even after altering a it to be more form fitting and washing it, It remained very stiff. I will try washing it again to see if the fabric becomes softer. The colors were perfect for what I wanted. so hope the fabric will soften."

Summer essential,

Love it!,

By: Eliana
from NH
"This shirt was exactly what I expected. Good fit, vibrant colors, easy care, and easy wear. It will get a lot of use this summer. I have only one quibble with the fit - the straight bottom hem could use side vents for ease. If your hips are wider than your shoulders, you may wish to size up."
