Bows may be just a small detail, but they can significantly enhance a look, making it appear more feminine and playful. Blouses with bows are particularly trendy right now. STYLEBOOK has compiled the most beautiful models for you.

There are clothing items that instantly make you look well-dressed. The blouse is one of them; it doesn’t take much more to complete the look. Recently, the classic blouse has gained a sophisticated detail: bows. In addition to the elegant classic, the bow blouse, a new, particularly playful version is now trending: In this model, the front buttons are simply replaced by bows. Read here how to best combine bow blouses.

Bows, Bows, and More Bows

Bows were everywhere last year, especially in the interior design world. For festive occasions, glasses and cakes were adorned with bows. Even bedding and pillows gained a certain sophistication with small bow details. It’s clear that the trend is also making its way into the fashion world.

In addition to bow hair clips, blouses with this playful detail are particularly popular. Not only is the classic bow blouse, tied at the neckline, back in style, but also the new version where buttons are replaced with ribbons. These are then tied into pretty little bows — usually at the front, but sometimes as a clever detail on the back.

The Most Beautiful Bow Blouses to Shop

Playful and Solid Colors

The bow blouse often comes with long sleeves and solid colors. It pairs well with jeans or with leopard print. A midi satin skirt that isn’t too flared also works. Add a pair of trendy sneakers, and the look is complete.

Elegant and Chic

The bow blouse replaces the classic blouse often worn in the office. It has that certain something, appearing feminine and stylish, yet no less professional. It pairs wonderfully with a blazer, though that’s not necessary. You can flexibly choose between a skirt or pants for the bottom. If you prefer a less elegant look, opt for sneakers or wide jeans. Bow blouses made of denim are particularly trendy.

Summer Delicate

Blouses with bow details are the right choice for summer. They are airy and light, and if you like, you can let some skin peek through. If that’s too much for you, simply wear a solid-colored top underneath or tie the bows a bit tighter. Either way, the light blouse pairs easily with wide pants or the trendy miniskirt.

Avoiding Unwanted Bra Peeks

Admittedly, the tie blouse has its quirks. Because of the bows, the blouse is never as closed as it would be with buttons. If that’s too risqué for you, choose a matching top or tie the bows a bit tighter. There’s another way to avoid unwanted bra peeks: Simply tie the middle bow to the bra — nothing can slip then!
