Black Cotton Embroidered Blouse Carrie by Lindsey Brown
The Carrie is an original Lindsey Brown design and a beautiful example of the finishing touches our brand is known for. Crafted from soft crinkle cotton in timeless black, this designer cotton embroidered blouse is elevated with intricate metallic gold embroidery across the voluminous balloon sleeves and a delicate hand-finished embroidered detail above the softly frilled hem. The V-neckline is kept deliberately clean and simple, creating a flattering line through the body and leaving the perfect space for a favourite fine gold necklace, or somewhere to casually tuck your sunglasses when the sun disappears.
Adjustable Sleeves for Easy All-Day Dressing
Carrie's balloon sleeves are finished with comfortable elasticated cuffs, giving you full control over the look throughout the day. Wear them pushed up to the elbow for an easy, relaxed feel, at three-quarter length for a classic resort look, or fully extended for a longer sleeve when the temperature cools. It is one of those small design details that makes Carrie a particularly versatile piece for between-seasons dressing, equally at home on a warm holiday evening as it is on a cooler autumn afternoon at home.
A Designer Cotton Embroidered Blouse That Works Every Way
Designed to work just as beautifully loose as it does tucked in, Carrie is an easy partner for both wide and slim leg trousers. Wear it untucked over wide leg denim to show off the frilled embroidered hem, pair it with white or neutral trousers for a lighter look, or tuck the front into jeans or tailored trousers for a more defined silhouette. The lightweight crinkle cotton is cool enough when there is still warmth in the air, yet easy to layer beneath a jacket or cardigan as temperatures change, making Carrie a brilliant travel blouse for holidays and beyond.

Yes, Carrie was designed with travel in mind. The crinkle cotton packs flat and arrives crease-free, the adjustable balloon sleeves adapt to changing temperatures, and the gold embroidery gives it enough elegance for a resort dinner or a special occasion on a cruise. It is as practical as it is beautiful.
What makes the Carrie blouse different from a plain cotton blouse?
The gold embroidery on the sleeves and the hand-finished embroidered hem detail set Carrie apart from a standard cotton blouse. These are the kind of considered, artisan touches that Lindsey Brown resort wear is known for.
