Black Business Blouse, Lola
The Lola Business Blouse in Black is a tailored business blouse in a deep true black, with a wide boat neckline finished in a sheer striped band, short sleeves, and a construction cut to hold its line under a blazer. It is the conservative-authority color of the Lola business family, for the woman in law, finance, or consulting whose black blouse signals that she is serious and consistent, day after day.
Fabric
A fabric blend in deep true black, with stretch and wrinkle resistance that hold through long workdays, travel, and back-to-back meetings. The black dye gives the fabric depth that photographs cleanly under fluorescent office light, conference lighting, and warm restaurant light, without the gray cast thinner blacks show on camera. Handcrafted in the Luna atelier in Pozarevac, Serbia, in limited batches. Designed in Europe. Ships from California.
Fit
Runs true to size; most clients take their usual size. The tailored construction holds the silhouette under a blazer through a full day. Short sleeves fit true to arm measurement. The blouse is cut for tucking into high-rise trousers and skirts. Between sizes, choose the smaller for a closer line or the larger for more ease across the bust. Measurements are in the Luna sizing guide. The model is 5 foot 9 inches and wears size 3.
Styling
For board meetings and conferences in conservative industries, layer it under the Natasha Tailored Blazer in Sand Beige for warm-neutral contrast against the black.
For executive presentations, wear it with the Agatha High Waisted Wide Leg Pants in Ivory for crisp contrast.
For mother of the bride at a formal evening wedding, layer the Selina Wool Cape in Black over the blouse and a black trouser for the arrival.
For day to evening, switch to a satin heel and add the Jody Lace Clutch Bag in Black for a cocktail reception.
For winter travel days, the Clara Wool Trench Coat in Navy Blue layers cleanly over the blouse.
Silver reads cleaner against deep black than warm gold; hold one metal across earrings, watch, and bracelet.
Care
Machine washable on a gentle cycle. Air dry. Steam or iron on low if needed. Do not bleach.
