Product Insights
Icône's Embroidered Poplin Ruffle Blouse uses a cotton poplin tie-back that allows the wearer to adjust the fit from a straight line to an hourglass with peplum, eliminating back gaping but potentially warping the neckline if over-tightened and not expanding the bodice. The 100% cotton poplin is non-stretch and semi-sheer, requiring a camisole or nude lining, and must be hand-washed cold and line-dried to avoid shrinkage and distortion. Priced at $59 CAD, it offers versatile shaping at the cost of delicate care and layering needs.

Deep Research
How the tie-back closure affects fit
- Securing the tie-back solo requires reaching behind to loop and knot the cords; the short sleeves and the poplin's crisp body structure keep the blouse from twisting out of place during the process, and the self-fabric cords' grip means the bow stays put without needing a second pair of hands.
- Since the bodice is already cut to a slim, fitted shape with no stretch, the tie-back primarily refines the fit around the ribcage and waist rather than expanding the blouse for larger sizes; tightening the cords eliminates any gaping at the back and can subtly adjust the chest fit, while over-tightening risks pulling the plunging V-neck out of its intended drape.
- The tie-back uses cords cut from the same 100% cotton poplin as the body, which gives them sufficient grip to hold a securely tied bow without slipping — unlike satin or synthetic ribbons that can loosen with movement, this means you can tie it once and expect it to stay put through a day of wear.
- The tie sits at the natural waist, exactly where the flared ruffles begin, so cinching the cords tighter creates a more dramatic hourglass with a pronounced peplum flare, while keeping them looser yields a straighter, boxier line — effectively giving the wearer two distinct silhouettes in one blouse.
Icône brand quality and $59 value
- Founded in 1840 and still family-run, Simons leverages its long-standing vendor relationships to deliver in-house brands like Icône at price points that undercut third-party labels — meaning the $59 CAD tag on this blouse benefits from direct sourcing without sacrificing the on-trend finishes that define the 'urban-chic' line.

Q&A
3 answered- Does the blouse have any stretch in the fitted bodice, or is it completely non-stretch?
- The blouse is made from 100% cotton poplin, which has no stretch — the fitted bodice is non-stretch.
- Is the white poplin see-through? Does it require a camisole or lining underneath?
- The blouse is made from light 100% cotton poplin, which can be semi-sheer in white. Many customers have noted that a camisole or nude lining is recommended for modesty, especially given the fitted bodice and plunging neckline.
- What are the recommended care instructions? Is it machine washable, and does it shrink?
- We recommend hand washing this blouse in cold water and hanging it to dry — it is not machine washable [1]. Because it's 100% cotton poplin, machine washing and drying could cause shrinkage, so following the hand-wash instructions is your best bet for preserving the fit.
