Biaude, Blouse auvergnate

The biaude was once worn for mass, festivals and agricultural fairs. It was worn over a corduroy jacket, which is why the blouse is very loose-fitting. Plan to wear one or two sizes smaller if you want to use it as a dress.

Made from 100% black cotton canvas.

Think of it as a tunic dress, suitable for both urban and rural looks, or as a mid-season jacket.

The blouse faithfully reproduces the details of the biaudes of yesteryear, with the officer collar, front closure, tightened sleeves and buttoned cuffs.

Comfortable and practical, with 2 vertically-opening buttoned welt breast pockets and side pass-throughs for easy access to your pockets.

Machine washable at 40°C, tumble dry at 60°C, ironable up to 150°C, dry cleaning permitted.
