Augustine's No. 9
Augustins no 9 is a moderated version of Augustins' older children's design Birkebluse – the focus has therefore been on conveying its characteristic neckline with bow ribbon, wide width of the bodice, and the roundness of the back.
As a new addition, the sleeves in this edition have been designed to be puffed and the neckline has been given a folded picot edge. Overall, it creates a nice and light blouse that, with its timeless expression, will fit well into any capsule wardrobe.
