novella blouse Puff-sleeve sweetheart blouse

I normally wear an XS in Aritzia clothing and this was pretty tight around the rib cage. Zipping it up was a bit difficult but once it's fully zipped, it feels completely fine. I ended up returning it because this is just one of those tops where your chest needs to fill it out. I bought the XS and I'm a 32B and I still had some gappage

Absolutely perfect, I was hesitant to get it but my goodness 100% worth it

This top is really, really pretty. My measurements put me between the medium and large sizes; I ended up getting the latter and it fits pretty snug, so I think this runs just a bit small. I'm not sure it'd work for people with a larger bust - mine is 34B and it felt like things might start falling out if they were any bigger.

This is my fav blouse. A true go-to for me. Have both in the long and short sleeve versions! Always good for a date night or girls night!

Beautiful top! I always get so many compliments whenever I wear it! Got an XXS and fit great. Would recommend sizing up if you’re larger chested.

The fit is amazing, I stayed true to size (small) and didn’t size up like some people said to and it fits great! For bigger chested ladies I do think it’s better to size up or be cautious because there may be some boob spillage but I’m a 32B and have no problems with it. Definitely looking to get more colours!

I fell in love with this top right after trying it on. I'm normally an xs/s 32D. I ordered a size small and the actual shirt fit perfectly but the bust area was way too small. Everything would probably fall out if I bent over. I tried on the medium in store and overall it was a little roomy but I opted to get it anyways because it's too cute to pass up

Absolutely love this top!! I have it in three colours!

I am 5'4" and 105Ibs. I got the XS.

This top looked beautiful when I stood nicely but not when I moved around. Beautiful colour, good thick material at the body. Unfortunately, it was an awkward fit around my chest (32B-C) so if I bent over, my full chest would be exposed at certain angles. I feel like this shirt would only fit people within a narrow bra size range.

I would recommend this if you just want a beautiful piece to wear for special occasions. I wouldn't wear this as an everyday summer shirt though because it is hard to move in without the sleeve falling off or your chest popping out as you move.

GORGEOUS. So flattering on the waist and chest.

this fits like a glove and is so lovely for a more elevated everyday look.

I have the previous version of this top and knew I had to repurchase in another color when the new version came out. The material is great and I've had no issues with it after about 8 months (definitely recommend hand washing). This top is a staple in my wardrobe - super flattering and can automatically class up any outfit. The length is great, super easy to pair with jeans/pants with any rise. I am 5'11'' with a long torso and this top never rides up or shows my midriff. I am a 32DD and have never worried about a nip slip either- it feels very secure. I have noticed a slight difference in sizing between this top and the old version, so if you are repurchasing, watch out. My 4 in the old version fits like a glove and my S in the new version fits slightly larger. Overall would highly recommend this top to anyone!

I am not happy with this blouse. It is really short and not flattering at all! Size fits small and is too revealing!

I have the novella dress from last year and thought I would add a top to my warobe cuz it’s so cute! Be warned this fits differently as I measured it against my novella dress. Chest is definitely bigger but waist is actually smaller. Still a cute top though. I’m usually a size 2 and occasionally size 4 for more fitted clothes, I got a size xs and s. Small fits better around waist.

I have a 36F/36DDD cup and took the XL. For how much boobage I have, I can only see this working for me on a date with my bf and with a jacket/cardigan over. While the XL is comfortable on the chest the sleeves feel loose and do not have that sucked in feel in the torso that I wanted with this top. I think overall I would have taken a L if it weren't for my boobs. However, I am 98% sure if I get the L then the girls will fall out. I am usually a M but usually take a L for close-fitting clothing especially ones that feature a side zip. The fabric is comfortable and really follow the bust-line really well, showing off assets the most flattering way ever.

So I was debating on getting a size S or M. My weight fluctuates but at the moment after eating my bust-waist is 90-73 cm. I got a size S. I wear a size 6 and 34B bra size, but lately, I think the latter is a bit too small. Though I loveeeeee this blouse (peak feminine energy), it looks a bit revealing and it is very fitted (not tight, I can still move around and do things). I'd be reluctant to wear it around family, go to church, or bend down. I'm considering getting this in another color, but I'm hesitant on the S.

I am typically a S-M but I’m a 34 D so I went with the M. I also have it in Black and wear it so much I needed another color to switch it up! Only thing I don’t love is the elastic on the arms/wrists on the new grey one - my black one doesn’t have elastic and I like it a lot more. Overall great top though!

Sooo cute and romantic, love the sleeve detail on this newer version! I’m usually XS/2 in Aritzia tops but had to size up to an S for this one because the bust fits realllly small!

It fits a little weird on the sleeves but that might just be because I am tall. Other then that love!

Very true to size! I brought it in my usual size XS and it fits amazing, for reference I am 5'3, 32B, 25in waist and it fits amazing on me!

I have a pretty bony chest as well as a smaller cup size so I felt a little exposed and was afraid they’d fall out but it actually fit very nice! I wore it to work and the sleeves don’t fall off the shoulders very easily while I’m moving around either.

I wpuld recommend, im normally a M and it was a bit big.

This is my third Novella blouse, fell in love with the richness of the Sparrow Taupe colour. I like the modifications to this style such as the elastic cuff; however, I wish the neckline could be raised a little bit to make it more wearable during the day.
