AINA is a flattering blouse with short, capped sleeves and an asymmetrical yoke at the back. The front pieces are slightly ruffled and the buttons are concealed. Depending on the fabric you choose, the blouse can have a totally different feel. Make an elegant version in light denim or cotton for work, use drapey viscose for a summer picnic, or go for something shiny, smooth, and sparkly for a night out.
