The Senorita blouse has a front neck slit and a bow tie. The long sleeves are ruched from wrist to elbow, a detail which will look as good in the boardroom as at the dinner table.
FIT
Just loose enough to not need a zip.
VARIATIONS

LEVEL
If you've already completed a couple of simple items this will be a good next step.
FABRIC
Slinky silk jersey is ideal for this design, especially one with an interesting print. Alternatively choose bamboo, synthetic or viscose jersey or a fine wool knit. Just be sure it's fine enough to drape.
You will need 140cm /11/2 yards of fabric, at least 140cm/56" wide.
We used silk jersey from Cloth House - read more about it here
