Loose, airy and breathable tops are a summertime must to beat the heat, and there’s one shirt style that we’re seeing fashionable women reach for time after time: peasant blouses. The breezy warm-weather staple may have been your go-to in the ’70s, however, these dainty styles feel a little more modern and fresh (while still maintaining that bohemian look).
The free-spirited top style features relaxed silhouettes, light textures, puffed sleeves, ruffles and elastic details that feel very rural-esque. But don’t worry, you won’t look like you’re part of a folk band while wearing these rich-looking options. In fact, our peasant blouse favorites feel more inspired with a touch of poshness. Think finds from Lucky Brand, Farm Rio, Free People, Madewell and more. Prices start at $17, so stocking up on the most trendy, comfy trend is easy. . . and affordable.
15 Comfy Peasant Blouse Styles Trending for Summer
1. Our Favorite: A clean, classic silhouette is fused together with feminine details to give you a stylish blouse that’s both modern and vintage. Plus, the loose fit provides all-day comfort.
2. Runner-Up: If you’re looking for something that’ll transition well from summer to fall, this long-sleeved top is it. The billowy fit throughout the shirt ensures decent airflow, and the elastic hem provides shape.
3. Pop of Color: We love the ’70s vibes this boho top gives off. The bold red colors and pretty floral pattern definitely make it stand out from the bunch.
4. Laid-Back Luxe: The bell sleeves, ruffle trim and embroidered details give this peasant blouse a rich-looking appearance. We could totally see Hamptons rich moms wearing it while grabbing brunch in Sag Harbor.
5. Off-Shoulder Number: Show off a little skin when you throw on this off-shoulder top. It has dainty puffed sleeves, a string closure and a lacey trim that’s simply adorable.
6. Anything But Basic: Go full-on vintage with this loose peasant top from Lucky Brand. The simple embroidery gives it a folky appearance, however, the cropped hem lets you wear it with ‘It’ girl high-waisted jeans.
7. Rich Mom: There’s no question about it: rich moms love Farm Rio. The brand is also leaning into the peasant style with this cotton blouse that has its iconic floral pattern and color palette. . . just with a tie-neck detail and balloon sleeves.
8. Comfort MVP: Hot summer days call for linen clothing, like this European-style top from Quince. It’s simple but has pretty accents like a notched V-neckline and gathering that gives the shirt some dimension.
9. Boss Babe: Give your work wardrobe folksy vibes with this top-rated peasant blouse. The ruffled stand collar and front details feel buttoned-up yet feminine.
10. Easy Breezy: We couldn’t write a peasant blouse roundup without including Free People. The Monica Top is lacey, loose and adorable, especially when paired with baggy jeans or maxi skirts.
11. Soft Statement: Bow-tie front tops are super popular right now, which is why we gasped when we found this long-sleeved top that incorporates the aforementioned style with a ’70s touch. In addition to the tie-front closure, you’ll also appreciate the ruffle collar that extends all the way to the hem.
12. Quite the Charmer: Unlike other peasant blouses out there, this Free People top has a fitted design that accentuates your curves. It looks almost like a corset that flares out a touch at the ruffled hem.
13. Summer Staple: Love the peasant style but not the long sleeves? Opt for this vintage-inspired tank top from Lulus. It still has all the details you love about the peasant blouse but with less material.
14. Just Launched: Madewell released a few new staples for fall, including The Chateau Top that works for right now and all through October. We love the acorn color, which goes well with gold-accented purses, belts and jewelry.
15. Last But Not Least: One look at this bold peasant top, and we knew we had to have it. The cotton-blend Madewell shirt features quarter-length balloon sleeves that protect you from the sun without making you feel hot. Oh, and the red color is such an eye-grabber.
