Plus Size 1950s Tie Cuff Blouse

I'm not sure if it's me, or the new sizing, or just this blouse, but it's way too big. I'll take it in, as that shouldn't be too hard, but I may be wary with this style in future. I never used to buy this style as the ones from long ago ran so very small, but I thought I'd take a chance because this one is really pretty and I needed an ivory blouse. Fabric is very slick and quite weighty, which I wasn't expecting. Bottom line- I don't hate this blouse, it's still really pretty, and I can fix it, but not sure it's my best purchase here.

They are poorly made, the zipper broke the 1st use, the side panel flap with button design both sides fell off, the blue dye was all over my hands, and they are entirely too long, by 6 inches. I sewed the zipper and flaps back and hemmed them, but would not recommend, especially if you are not really tall.
