best-fitting blouse I've ever found
I have quite large (fat) upper arms in proportion to my torso, and I hate the feeling of restricted movement. I'd long given up the idea of having a nice white blouse because I'd always found them too tight somewhere. Instead, I spend my life wearing knitted shirts and sweaters. After reading a "wardrobe essentials" checklist that listed a white shirt, I decided to give this a try. I was skeptical but SO PLEASED! I wore it last night to ukulele group and felt completely comfortable playing, moving, leaning over to pick up music and water bottle from the floor, and driving. No restricted arm movement, no pulling it down from my underarms all night, no showing my lower back even when leaning over and wearing sort of low-rise shorts, and no worrying about bra show-through (I don't know why it's so difficult to make a shirt that isn't sheer!). I am so delighted with this that I'll be buying more right away!

beautiful begonia color...
ordered the 10P, usually am between 8&10, could only get the begonia pink color in a petite size...it is definitely form fitting, close to the body, and yes, the french cuffs r stiff and stick out more than usual, getting ready to tack the slits together a bit...also, i will most definitely launder on cold cycle and use low heat for drying so it won't become to tight to wear.

The Fabric on this Blouse is Lovely and has a Silky Hand.
I ordered a size 16 in this blouse, my normal size in LE clothes since I lost weight. Although the fabric is better than most blouses of this style, and the shape of the item was nice, the size for me was off, too big. Too bad because I do buy most all my sportswear from LE. This particular piece was not fitted for my body.

fits well, avoid heat
if I had read other people's reviews originally I never would have ordered this shirt. For the most part its a good shirt, I own it in 3 colors. i like that the material is not too thin and the 3/4 sleeves are the right length. I wished LE tacked the cuffs so they aren't sticking out but that is simple to fix. Avoid hotwater/dryer as the shirt I felt shrank overall in both the length of the body and circumference of the sleeves. i wish I knew if the white showed off a person's bra.

Nice fit, pity about the cuffs.
I am 5'3", slim, small busted and ordered regular size 2. This fits me perfectly. Nice material. All the good impression is ruined with the French cuffs. They are very stiff like made of cardboard. When you wear the shirt with the cuffs folded like the model on the picture, an industrial strength seam appears. I have never seen such seam before on a woman's blouse. I got this shirt on sale so I shall probably keep it - let's tell the truth, I can't be bothered to go to Sears any time soon - but those cuffs are simply ugly.

Tight!
I agree with the above review... It felt tight in weird places (like the elbow and upper arm) while it fit everywhere else. Not Lands' End usual fit.

Nice shirt, even though cuffs are stiff
I do understand the review that probably has kept women from buying this shirt, but I like my shirt just fine. The sleeves are designed to fit snugly. When you turn up the cuff that is pretty stiff, it all hits right below the elbow. It would have been better to make the sleeve looser or the cuff less stiff. I think I usually just don't turn the cuff up, and it still looks okay. All that said, I love the way the body of the shirt fits. It slenderizes under the bus and then flares out a little over the tummy area. At the sale price, it's a good buy.

Good quality, fits okay.
I got this in both white and pink and I love them both. Good quality and great for work. My only problem is that it's a bit tight under the arm. Just make sure you purchase the right size to avoid being disappointed.

returning... uncomfortable
Disappointed... fit fine and appeared to be well made but the french cuffs @ the elbow are uncomfortable and I'm not particularly fussy...
