A leopard print, but one that doesn't immediately take over the whole room. The CYPRES LEO from RECOLUTION is the kind of blouse that does just enough. The warm brown-black print is bold, but thanks to the understated style and the fluid fabric, it remains very easy to wear. Just pair it with black trousers or jeans, and you're good to go.
The CYPRES is made from LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose: a light, soft, and fluid fabric. We have this model in two prints: LEO and WATERDROP. Same blouse, totally different vibe.
What makes the RECOLUTION CYPRES LEO special?
For me, it really comes down to the combination. You have that cool all-over animal print, but the cut itself is quite calm. A classic shirt collar, a full-length button placket, and lovely three-quarter sleeves. This keeps it from being fussy, but also not over the top. Just right.

How does the RECOLUTION CYPRES blouse fit?
RECOLUTION describes the CYPRES as a regular fit. It doesn't cling to the body, but it isn't hugely oversized either. As you can see in the photos, there is some room in the body and sleeves, which allows the ECOVERO™ fabric to drape nicely.
If you want to wear it as intended, we would simply choose your own size.
How to style a leopard print blouse?
My advice: don't overthink it. The print does all the work.
With black trousers, as seen in the photo, it's perfect, but I think it looks just as good with jeans. And if you want to dress it up, pair it with some smart trousers and a nice cardigan or jacket over it.
Thanks to the brown and black tones, you can also combine it with a surprising number of colors. Think of black, dark brown, denim, cream, or camel.
What is LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose?
ECOVERO™ is a viscose fiber from LENZING™ made from wood sourced from controlled or certified sources. Production is focused on a lower environmental impact compared to conventional viscose.
For you as the wearer, what matters most is how it feels: soft, light, and fluid. That is exactly why this material works so well for a blouse like the CYPRES. The fabric moves beautifully and gives the blouse a completely different look compared to a stiffer cotton blouse.
What is the difference between CYPRES LEO and WATERDROP?
The model is the same, but we carry the CYPRES in two different prints. LEO is the warm version with a playful leopard-like print in brown and black. WATERDROP has a softer, abstract watercolor print.
So the real question is: are you Team Leopard or Team Watercolor today?
How do you wash an ECOVERO™ viscose blouse?
Viscose deserves a little love in the wash. Always wash the blouse according to the care label, inside out, at a low temperature, and with a small amount of mild detergent. It's best not to wash it with clothes that have sharp zippers, hooks, or other components that could damage the fabric.
Take the blouse out of the machine immediately after washing and let it air dry. No tumble dryer and preferably no fabric softener.
