Overblouse is a garment worn by women that sits above the waistline and is not tucked in, allowing for a relaxed and comfortable fit. It can be worn as a standalone blouse or layered over a shirt or top. Some common synonyms for overblouse include blouse, top, tunic, shirt, smock, and shell. Blouse is the most commonly used synonym for overblouse, while top is another term that refers to a similar garment but may sit at different points on the body. Tunic and smock both refer to loose-fitting tops that often have longer hemlines, while shell is a more formal term for a sleeveless top worn on its own or under a jacket or cardigan.
