Alix of Bohemia Poet Blouse - Blueberry
The verdict
Fit
Poet blouses typically feature gathered sleeves and romantic details. Alix of Bohemia is a designer collaboration, suggesting tailored fit; model sizing (5'9") indicates contemporary proportions.
Quality
MOTHER's designer collaborations are premium-tier construction. Woven fabric and designer authorship signal refined seaming and finish quality.
Price check
Premium tier. At $420, this is positioned as a designer statement piece, not a functional basic—price reflects collaboration and brand positioning.
Best for
Shoppers with high budgets seeking statement blouses or those invested in MOTHER's designer-label offerings.
Care
Designer woven blouses often require hand wash or delicate cycle; check care tags for specific guidance.

Fit check: MOTHER
True to sizeMOTHER mostly fits true to size with a snug waist and long legs, but a handful of denim cuts stray a full size in either direction.
Owners and denim reviewers land on true to size as the baseline — one petite reviewer wears her usual 25 "in most Mother styles," and an editorial roundup calls the fit true to size and slightly snug in the waist. The caveat is cut-level: reviewers report the Insider and Looker styles running small and the Ditcher and Dodger running large, with one long-term buyer ranging from a 24 to a 26 across styles. Tops and sweatshirts draw quieter feedback but are consistently reported true to size with a relaxed cut. Inseams run long, so shorter wearers lean on the Lil (petite) line or plan to hem.
Sizing advice: Order your usual size as the default, but check the specific cut's reviews first — size up in the Insider/Looker-type slim crops, down in the Ditcher/Dodger, and consider the Lil line if you're petite.

What owners report about MOTHER tops
Third-party coverage of MOTHER's tops is thin next to its denim, but what exists is consistent: style bloggers who own several of the tees rank the graphic tees among the best they've tried, and retailer customers describe the shirts as comfortable, well made, and true to the photos. The recurring gripe is price — owners on retailer sites call the tees overpriced for what they are, and bloggers say they only buy the line on sale. Nobody reports durability failures; the complaints are about value, not construction.
- Strengths
- Owners report comfortable fabric and a fit that works straight out of the bag, with graphic tees strong enough that one denim-focused blog ranks the brand in its top two for the style.
- Watch out for
- Price is the complaint that repeats — 'overpriced' and 'a steep price point for a graphic tee' — so experienced buyers wait for markdowns.
- Sizing
- Retailer reviewers report their usual size fitting well in the core tees — one 5'2", 116 lb reviewer took a small and called the fit good.
