Here’s a version that matches the thoughtful, polished style often seen in MM.LaFleur reviews: I almost passed on this top because I wasn’t sure about the print, but I’m so glad I took a chance. In person, the pattern reads as a soft, abstract design rather than an obvious bluebird print, making it surprisingly versatile. The muted palette works beautifully with a range of neutral bottoms and pairs especially well with the Morning Sky Rosalie cardigan from last spring. I’ve already worn it with both trousers and jeans, and it feels equally at home in the office or on the weekend. The fit is flattering without being fussy, and the fabric is exceptionally comfortable. This is one of those pieces that looked good online but exceeded my expectations in person. If you’d like, I can also make it sound like one of MM.LaFleur’s “Verified Purchaser” reviews—warm, concise, and focused on fit, styling, and versatility.

Franka Ruched Top - Light Printed Jersey :: Abstract Bluebird
This is my second top in this style. I really love this style. I find it very flattering for my figure at age 63. I have the spin dot print in silk and so I was debating whether I needed a spin dot print in another style. I am glad I purchased it. The coloring is slightly different on this top - more pink than beige. I love it.

Good color, feels a little flimsy

Tighter than I’m used to but people say it looks ok

Franka Ruched Top - Light Printed Jersey :: Botanical Breeze
I have this on the floral print and I love it, so I pounced on the spin-dot print. It fits me really well and it isn’t too low. A versatile, comfortable, and flattering piece that will pair well with many bottoms!

Love this easy wearing top. Have already bought another color. Doesn’t wrinkle and wears well under a cardigan or blazer.
Sonia 5/5 Verified
Beautiful top. I wanted to make it work friendly so I needed to have the shoulder seem brought up by my alterations person. Now the cleavage is not an issue for work events. I am 5’3”. The XS was too body defining, so I chose the S.

The fit is great and this top is very versatile - I can wear it to work and a more casual setting. And it works with pants and jackets I already own.

Franka Ruched Top - Light Printed Jersey :: Abstract Bluebird
This is my second Franka top and the bluebird pattern is versatile. This one was a bit lower in the v-neck, but it just took it up at the shoulders a little and its fine now. It washes nicely too.

Lovely print and fit. Flattering without being too form fitting. My second Franka; my first is the regular jersey weight and I wear it all the time. Glad to try this lighter weight one.

This shirt is so comfortable and flattering. I bought the matching skirt and it looks like a dress.

I ordered the Franks to go with the matching Ara skirt and am so glad I did. It will be perfect under blazers and sweaters paired with the skirt when I want a slightly more formal look.

The color and style are easy to wear. However, it runs a bit tight, and I'm not crazy about the fabric.

Franka Ruched Top - Light Printed Jersey :: Abstract Bluebird
I love the print. I can’t tell if it is flattering on its own as is rather fitted which I have been avoiding lately, but looks perfect and slimming with the matching bluebird skirt. Very comfortable and cool too!

The material is very stretchy. I usually wear a medium but I bought a large for my 36C chest after the description noted it was curve-hugging. The large is way too big. A medium would have been fine. Stick to your regular size.

Love it! Flowy, feminine, flattering. I’m a size 10 and the large fit perfectly.

Very nice top! Nice pattern.

Fit is good, but overall appearance is pretty matronly. Going to keep it and wear it but predominantly under a blazer/jacket/cardigan
Katie 3/5 Verified
Ordered next size up because it didn’t fit right. Blouse was too big on top, to tight in stomach area still. Will be returning soon.

I like the style and love the fabric : color, pattern and hand but the fit/sizing is way off. please include mote date on dimensions. If I could I would return but will donate instead.
Carla 2/5 Verified
It’s a bit form fitting (really my style bc I have large bust) but I can wear it under jackets/cardigan. It was on sale so not returnable except for store credit.

I still haven’t received my order which is quite frustrating. Can you please help with this, and either resend, or give me a refund?

Amazingly flattering top. Please make it in more colors and prints!
Tanja 5/5 Verified
The top is beautiful - fabric, design...everything except the depth of the V neckline. I would love a similar top with a slightly less plunging neckline. Also, I am particularly enamored with cap sleeves so, for me, a perfect update to this top with be cap sleeves and a higher V neckline. Thank you!!
Donna 4/5 Verified
Very cute and veresatile top. I will probably have the neckline taken in a bit.
Erin 4/5 Verified
I’m very happy with this top. As a petite woman with a short torso, v-necks tend to be too low and the length too long. This top has none of these problems. I’m size 00 or 0 and XS was perfect. The ruching makes it very flattering and it is machine washable too. I’d love to see more in this style in colors and prints that flatter cool-toned complexions.
Elizabeth 5/5 Verified

Lovely, Easy Blouse This blouse is super comfy and cute. I wore it, with the Daria jeans, on two six hour flights. It’s very flattering and not fussy.
Tera 5/5 Verified
This top is flattering and comfortable. So far, I've worn it with the navy Elena culotte and that was a great outfit! The V-neck looks low in the on-line picture, but I felt it was not too low and still professional - on me (like the model), there was no cleavage showing.
Kristen 5/5 Verified
The look and feel of the top is lovely. It's a smidgen tight, but the style of it compensates for it. Have not worn yet.

I love your qualify and clothes. Wish they were a bit better priced but the second act sales make it even better.
Dalynne 5/5 Verified
Love the feel of the fabric, the print and overall shape of the blouse. The v-neck is just a bit low for me at work. I really wish all MM LaFleur tops were just 1/4 of and inch higher.
