Mingyuezai Victorian Blouse Womens Gothic Pirate Shirt Vintage Long Sleeve Lotus Ruffle Tops

I really like this blouse..I usually wear a large but went one size up. Large would have been fine. I bought it to only wear with blazers and it works perfectly. The sleeves were long but I just cut one of the ruffles off and now it works! Good value for the money.

Loved this so much i brought it in black too

Thank you

Now by that title you'd assume it is a bit small for me - and you'd be right, though that is not the issue I have. I ordered this deliberately to help display some brooch lapels for my store, and I ordered it in my approximate size (small) knowing the display I have is more petite than myself, and even if it ran small that would be alright, as the measurements were a little larger for me anyway. It fits the display torso perfectly, but here are some points:1. The stays/ties are but a mere suggestion. Sure, they will tighten the garment, but nowhere near the same way a corset would. Also, tightening it causes a gap to open up in the front between buttons.2. The fabric is thin (I ordered white for reference) and nothing spectacular. If you intend to wear this, wear something white underneath and don't expect it to survive long term abuse.3. Loose threads: though I didn't notice many loose threads off the bat and the buttons are sewn down, each and every button got caught on a thread when unbuttoning it from myself - without fail.4. The torso length is SHORT: This is my biggest issues with this garment. For reference, I am 5 foot 1 and don't have an incredibly long torso but a decent chest. The item came down to just above my hips and the stays to my mid back. This came with an added issue where by tightening the stays, it did nothing for the waist - just the chest. The shoulders also became quite restrictive and I was worried about being able to move without ripping the darn thing to shreds. If you are of decent chest - go a size up... Or two. Just to be safe.5. The frill tie on is nice, but it will move. I had an issue with trying to keep the garment from riding up, but if I pulled it down, the frill would try to escape over the top of the collar. I suggest pinning it down with the lapel or extra hidden pins, or even temporarily sewing it down into place if you intend to wear it long term.6. It's a bit expensive for what it is. I wasn't expecting anything spectacular anyways, but I think for some of the issues it has its a bit over the top. If you want something you will use long term and for many years, I suggest finding something more professionally made. But if you need this for a costume or display (as for my case), it is alright.

Absolutely beautiful! Great quality and fits well with!

I don't usually write reviews but this blouse inspired one. The design is excellent and well executed, a notch above the standard costume. The material looks like cotton which fits with the Victorian theme, but is stretchy and forgiving. The XXL fit my plus 18/20 W figure well, with the exception of the bust area as other reviewers noted (mine is 48 inches which is within the size range but.... would be gaping open without a pin). Reading other reviews, I was convinced it was not going to fit but gave it a shot and was pleasantly surprised. There isn't an inch to pinch, but the snug fit is flattering. I'll wear a tank underneath and pin the bust area. Will be part of a fun witch costume along with a Victorian skirt. A bit more sophisticated than the usual "sexy" witch costume, but not frumpy at all.

It’s better quality than I had imagined, it feels nice however the sizing is a bit…complicated? Many people said to size up so I bought a medium, it fits my bust right (I’m a double d) however the waist and arms are baggy, I can always manually fix this by cinching however it makes me look, bigger? All in all I would recommend this shirt but probably better for my small bust loves.

I purchased this blouse for my pirate costume this year and I was mindblown how nice it actually is in person. I will say though, if you have a long torso like me it sits just above the hips. I'm wearing higher waisted leggings so the length isn't an issue. The sleeves and lace are really nice and it comes with a front ruffle piece and a rhinestone brooch. It is so sparkly and pretty in person. It doesn't give off a cheap costume look. In fact, it has an aristocratic victorian look to it. The lace up back really completes the look and makes it seem like a tailored custom fit. I almost want to wear this out running errands its so pretty. Highly highly recommend!
