Docking side pleats blue striped crewneck beige tee / blouse

• Origin:  Conceptually designed and meticulously produced in Japan.

• Material:  High-twist Cotton Jersey (Tee body) for soft stretch and breathability; Technical Polyester-Cotton Blend(Sleeves/Panels) for structural crispness.

• Silhouette:  Relaxed, "docking" profile with a clean ribbed neckline and voluminous architectural sleeves.

• Features:  Specialized overlapping seam construction, elasticated cuffs for adjustable volume, and a fluid, stepped hemline.

• Texture:  A sophisticated mix of the smooth, dry touch of a premium tee and the paper-like structural feel of a technical blouse.

This blouse is designed to be the textural focal point of a minimalist outfit. Pair with the Japan handcrafted lyocell-cotton contour skirt in sage moss—the soft volume of the skirt beautifully complements the architectural sleeves of the top. For a more structured ensemble, style it with high-waisted pleated pants in olive drab. Complete the look with lambskin brogue lace-up heels and Mina Perhonen figurine socks to achieve a curated, intellectual silhouette that balances comfort with sharp, artisanal design.

To maintain the contrasting textures and the precise "docking" seams:

• Washing:  Machine wash in cool water (30°C) on a gentle cycle. Always use a mesh laundry bag to prevent the knit body from stretching differently than the woven sleeves.

• Detergent:  Use a mild liquid detergent. Avoid bleach or heavy optical brighteners to preserve the delicate beige tone.

• Drying:  Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry on a clean towel. Hanging while wet may cause the jersey section to "grow" or pull at the docked seams.

• Steaming:  Use a handheld garment steamer primarily on the woven sleeve sections to restore their crisp volume. A low-heat iron can be used on the woven panels if necessary, but avoid direct high heat on the jersey body.
