This blouse is a real beauty! And the sleeve embroidery is of very good quality. However, tying the ribbons for closure was a bit of a hassle, though. They are somewhat short and tie at an awkward angle high up at the side of my chest, just below the bust. I bought it in size L, but for my 96cm bust it's definitely a tight fit, though (lie flat measurements when both flaps are completely closed is only about 86cm). I can use it thanks to the ties, but it is strained at the snap button closure on the collar. I would recommend ordering at least one size up of the suggested bust measurements, therefore.

Excellent quality piece. The hood is removable.
