Easy care

Loved this shell..the length was perfect - usually shells are shorter than the jacket and I love my tops longer and in this case..my shells longer too. It is my favorite feature of all MIB tops! And I also love that it is polyester and spandax and no care but wash and dry and for travel this is what we need. Right girls?

This item fit me beautifully. I have a very full figure, and I couldn't believe how it draped so nicely while it still fit me through the shoulders. Thank-you, MIB!

rELIABLE SHELL

This top is better made than some venus tops have been in the past (i.e., the hems lays beautifully). Unlike other reviewers, I wish it were in polyester--I hate fussing with rayon, I hate ironing, etc. I also wish these blouses came in more colors--right now, there are only three colors in stock in size H. But I knew it was rayon when I ordered it and it looks lovely.

Annette must have a different top than I have. But then I remembered MIB changed its Venus rayon a few years ago. Apparantly the older vintage is much better bec it doesn't wrinkle, goes in dryer, and wears very well. I am not sure whether 1 or 5 is tops. I meant to rate it tops because I still like the new venus rayon and hate polyester.

I have 3-4 colors. Ridiculously expensive for what it is. It is cool, but I find myself seldom wearing them because they MUST be ironed, and I have choices that work just as well that don't require that extra time. As someone else said, they're poorly hemmed - they wad, bunch, or curl up even when ironed because they aren't properly turned up as they're being sewn. I sew and know whereof I speak. Should also be a couple of inches longer since they invariably shrink somewhat in length.

Great style and good assortment of colors. Wish the fabric was linen instead of rayon. Both wrinkle, but linen is much cooler in summer. What I dislike about these blouses is that the hems are so difficult to iron. They wrinkle in the most difficult way -- kind of folds over itself and bunches. Even the new one I bought came that way in the shipping bag!

This is the BEST MIB short sleeve blouse! I have it in every color offered and love it! More colors, please, especially a true, bright cherry red and charcoal gray, with matching venus pants in the charcoal.

I have bought several of these over the years in different colors. It's great for layering under a jacket or an open blouse, or worn alone when it's warm. I find rayon to be nice and dressy for work, but cool as cotton. Like any rayon, it is subject to wrinkling, but I find that spritzing with a fine spray of water, and stretching out the wrinkles works well, or putting it briefly in a low heat dryer, and taking it out quickly. I don't like to iron!

Although the cut and color of this top is beautiful, I was disappointed to find that it wrinkles a lot. I had planned on ordering several colors but will not.
