I am a 36F and ordered a XXL after reading reviews. This shirt runs incredibly small. It fits me in the shoulders, the arms are not too long, the shirt itself is a little bit long on me, and it is snug across the bust line, but absolutely wearable thanks to a couple hidden buttons. It looks better on me worn open with a tank under it. It’s great fabric. I love the stretch.
Great shirt, fabric seems a bit casual but good quality. Perfect for day to day going to the office
This shirt (navy) runs very small. Size up one or two sizes. It is small across the shoulders and the arms are cut slim. Yes, it stretches, but the cut of the shirt is such that there is no pleat to allow for movement when you move or raise your arms. That said, the fabric is amazing and it is probably one of the sharpest looking shirts I own. I just won’t be wearing it on days where I’m going to be raising my arms a lot higher than my shoulders.
Wore it as styled with the Plaka skirt, the day after it arrived! Love all the poplin knits, and so glad to finally have the Clemens in a darker color.
Nice quality blouse that fits well. I appreciate the long sleeves! The color is rich and as expected. I gave it a 4 because the fabric is rougher than I expected. I’m hoping it will soften more in time.
Absolutely beautiful. The design is so flattering and material so comfortable; understated elegance. I usually take a large but had to size up to give me the room that I desire.
Love this shirt! Wish it came in other colors (a cream color would be nice). I love a button-down shirt, but I don't like them too boxy. The Clemens is the perfectly tailored button-down for an hourglass shape. It does run a bit small. I took my larger MM size and I probably could have gone up one more size and it still would have fit.
Fits me perfectly. I ordered The small at first since That is my usual size but returned it for a medium which looks amazing. The details are great I wish there were more colors available
Sizing tip: size up at least one size! This shirt looks and feels comfortable while still looking sharp and structured. Under a jacket / sweater or as a standalone, the darting gives it visual interest and the fit is a dream.
Widen the sleeve circumference at the elbow and slightly increase in length. I cannot bend my arm comfortably in this sleeve....which is completely odd for me.
Perfect for!!!
Very nice quality and design. Can't wait to wear it!
This shirt runs ridiculously small. I have a closet full of MM LaFleur and it is typically true to size. I ordered a size large in this shirt, in two colors. It fits two sizes too small. I love the shirt style and fabric. Sending both back. So disappointed.
I finally wore my white clemens knit poplin blouse. I can’t say enough about how much I love it. It’s soft and dressy and fits wonderfully. I wish you had it in other colors. I’d get all of them. I’m on the waitlist for the hydrangeas, also in medium. Hope you get it in. What are the chances?
I love the feel (soft) and stretch of this fabric. It looks sharp and is comfortable to wear. I had to size up one size from my regular size as it was a bit smaller than my other MM Lafluer shirts in the chest and shoulders.
very versatle work and casual blouse

Comfortable and love fabric and length of cuffs. Love the quality of all your garments!
I love the color, fabric and style of this shirt, but it runs exceptionally small. I am typically a medium and sometimes can wear a small, but I ordered a large and it is tight. It was not returnable so I'm keeping it to give away.
Already my favorite shirt after wearing it twice! I get tons of compliments in it. This shirt looks professional and yet feels so comfortable!
Beautiful fabric, and well made. Not five stars because the upper arm is weirdly tight which is not a problem I typically have with dress shirts (even fitted ones)
Love the hydrangea color and style of this shirt. Perfect by itself for business casual days at work or with a blazer for regular days in the office. The only thing is it looks great when you first wear it but, after I washed it in cold water in the delicate cycle and hung it up to dry, I had to iron it and afterward it didn't look as crisp as it did originally. So I'm not sure this should be washed; dry cleaning would be better. And though the description says you don't have to size up, I had to. I normally wear a size large in MM LaFleur tops and had to get an extra large in this style.
I love the look and I love the material. The blouse, however, is a little tight in the chest. I usually wear a six or a small.
I got my usual XS and it looks great tucked in or untucked. I really enjoy the knit poplin fabric it’s super soft and comfortable. And the light blue is perfect I find it’s a bit more richly colored than the pictures do justice.
Love this shirt- it is super comfortable, soft and looks crisp even though it is a knit. It would be great to have in more colors.
I’m getting lots of compliments on this — it is VERY fitted, so take that into account when ordering. The only thing that prevents this from being a five star review is that the upper arms are too tight. Not enough to return it but enough to make me slightly self conscious. Everything else is great. I love the fabric and the color is gorgeous
Love it! First, fabric and hydrangea color fabulous. While the Filomena in the XS swam on me, the size S fit me perfectly in this. For comparison, I wear a size 2 Etsuko dress, size 2 Yiyan blazer, XS Antoinia top and XS Nora top. Size M preference in Axam turtleneck and other similar ribbed knit tops.
Love it!
A definite staple that everyone should own. The fit is perfect and the fabric is comfortable. The hidden buttons are genius. Please release in other colors.
I love the material.
I am in love with this shirt. This color is perfect and I love the stretch and flexibility in this shirt. I did size up one size as I think it runs small.
Clemens a winner Wanted a more fitted shirt to tuck in. Usually wear 6 or small in MM tops. Clemens small was too small, medium was a great fit, not too big anywhere. Got white with 20% discount. Paid full price for hydrangea, a beautiful color, Love two extra hidden buttons to avoid the gap. Will launder them with care and hope they stay as nice as they are now.
MM Magic Yet Again This shirt is magical, who would have thought MM could elevate a basic button down to the point where I love it so much?? Fabric is luxe and gives really well, the hydrangea is a gorgeous color, fit is on point and I love the way the cuffs flip up and stay put, feels very modern and chic. Already added the white version of this shirt to my cart! Pieces like this are what keep me coming back to MM and paying more than $200 for a shirt, it's just so thoughtfully designed for an actual working woman.
Super sharp and comfy. True to size.
Exchanged for size medium, because the shoulders were too large.
Exchanged for size medium, because the shoulders were too large.
Great quality and beautiful drape and fit. beautiful buttons and seams.
Love the material. Fit is close to the body and takes some adjusting to get it to lie right. Love the extra hidden buttons in the front to prevent gapping. Looks good tucked in or left out. Hope to see this in other colors!
Great shirt but I unfortunately had to return it because I found it to be a bit too snug. I initially bought a medium in the 1. 0 version. After the 2. 0 was released, I purchased my usual size small, but felt that it was still too snug in the shoulders and arms. I always wear a size small in MM, so perhaps this isn't the right cut for me; I don't tend to wear close-fitting tops. I love this fabric and will try the newly released looser fitting option.
