DEDICATED NYDA HARVEST blouse made from LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose
Flowers, color, and a generous splash of the seventies. Boring? This blouse has carefully ruled out that risk. The NYDA HARVEST by DEDICATED features a distinct botanical print on a light background. Orange, ochre yellow, olive green, pink, eggplant, and dark blue come together in large graphic flowers. A cheerful blouse that practically makes your outfit complete in an instant.
The blouse is made of soft and fluid LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose. It has a classic collar, long sleeves, a concealed button placket, and a straight, relaxed fit. At Natur-el, we carry the NYDA in two prints: HARVEST and OWLS. This HARVEST version is available in sizes S to XL.

A complete flower meadow without the fussiness
HARVEST consists of large stylized flowers, leaves, berries, and seed pods. The combination of warm orange tones, moss green, soft pink, purple, and dark blue gives the print a distinct sixties and seventies feel.
Yet, the overall look never feels dowdy. The shapes are sleek and graphic, and the dark blue details provide sufficient contrast. It's more modern retro than floral wallpaper—although, honestly, we wouldn't mind having curtains made from this fabric.
The print runs across the entire blouse. The exact placement of the flowers may vary slightly per size and piece, as every pattern piece is cut from a different section of the printed fabric. You will always get the same colors and vibe, but not necessarily the same flower in the exact same spot.
A subtle blouse shape for an exuberant print
Because HARVEST already has enough to say for itself, the shape of the blouse has been kept deliberately simple. The NYDA features a classic collar, straight shoulders, and a relaxed silhouette that hangs loosely along the body.
The buttons are largely hidden behind an extra strip of fabric. This allows the print to continue seamlessly over the front panel, avoiding a collection of buttons competing for attention. At the back, a box pleat under the yoke provides extra room while moving.
The long sleeves finish in cuffs with buttons. You can wear the sleeves neatly at full length, or roll them up if you want to style the blouse a bit more nonchalantly. The rounded hem makes it suitable to wear both tucked in and loose.
LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose
The label of this blouse says LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose. That is different from TENCEL™: while both fiber brands come from producer Lenzing, they are not the same material. TENCEL™ is used for modal and lyocell; ECOVERO™ is viscose.
ECOVERO™ viscose is made from wood cellulose sourced from certified or controlled sources. The fabric feels soft and smooth and drapes fluidly without clinging to the body. That makes it perfect for a blouse like this: light and mobile, but with enough weight to drape beautifully.
It is still viscose, and therefore a more delicate material than a sturdy cotton shirt. Treat the fabric with a little kindness, and it will stay beautiful for much longer. Good news: being kind to a blouse is significantly easier than being kind to everyone before your first cup of coffee.
HARVEST or OWLS?
HARVEST is the light and colorful version. The large flowers in warm autumn colors give the blouse a cheerful, retro look. Despite the name, you don't have to go pick a basket of apples immediately—though you certainly can.
OWLS is a lot darker and more mysterious. That print consists of large illustrated owls in black, brown, pink, and blue. The model, material, and fit are the same; only the print differs.
If you love the NYDA model, it makes perfect sense to consider both prints. One for days when you're in the mood for flowers, and the other for days when you'd rather be stared at by a collection of owls.
How to style the NYDA HARVEST
Because of the many colors, you can combine this blouse with a surprising amount of clothing. Dark blue jeans complement the dark lines in the print nicely. Brown, olive green, burgundy, purple, and rust match the warmer colors.
With smart trousers or a skirt and nice shoes, HARVEST is suitable for work or a dinner out. With jeans and sneakers, it remains perfectly casual. You can wear the blouse completely loose, tucked in only at the front, or fully tucked into high-waisted pants.
Under a simple cardigan or jacket, the collar and part of the print remain visible. This makes a simple outfit more interesting without you needing a master's degree in color matching first.
Fit and sizing advice
The NYDA has a straight, relaxed fit and does not cling tightly around the waist. The blouse offers quite a bit of room around the chest and stomach. The woven viscose contains no elastane and has almost no stretch; the freedom of movement comes from the design and the box pleat in the back.
Choose your usual size if you want to wear the blouse loose as shown in the photo. If you are between sizes or prefer a less roomy model, compare the product measurements with a well-fitting blouse from your own closet.
At Natur-el, we carry this HARVEST print in sizes S to XL.

These are the measurements of the blouse itself, not the body. The chest measurement is the full circumference of the garment. For a loose fit, the blouse should therefore be roomier than your own chest measurement.
When in doubt, compare the chest and shoulder width with a blouse that you already find comfortable. Also consider how much room you personally find appealing. One person calls something comfortably roomy, the other wonders if they accidentally put on a tent. Fit remains personal.
How to care for ECOVERO™ viscose
Wash the blouse only when necessary and always follow the care label. Turn it inside out, button it up, and choose a gentle wash cycle with a mild detergent. A laundry bag protects the fabric against zippers, hooks, and other garments that might display surprisingly aggressive behavior during washing.
Viscose fibers are more fragile when wet. Therefore, do not wring the blouse, do not pull hard on the seams, and let it air dry. Avoid the tumble dryer. After washing, gently reshape the blouse and preferably let it dry on a wide hanger or laid flat.
After washing, viscose can temporarily feel a bit stiff or slightly smaller. During wear or with careful steaming, the fiber usually relaxes again. Iron on the inside at a low temperature if necessary.
Also, watch out for sharp belts, rough zippers, and bag straps that constantly rub against the same spot. The fabric is fluid and soft, but can be damaged by long-term friction. HARVEST likes adventure, just preferably not Velcro.
