review:
'Bastien Vives' The Blouse' with story and art by Bastien Vives with translation by Fabrice Sapolsky is a graphic novel about a forgettable young woman who is transformed by an unforgettable piece of clothing.

They say that clothes make the man, and that is true in The Blouse. A mostly invisible young woman is loaned a silk blouse after an accident while babysitting, and the garment makes her suddenly noticeable. She like the attention so much that it leads her to make poor choices.

I didn't like this story much because I could never care for the main character Severine. She has no depth and is used by the men in her life once she dons the blouse. Perhaps the story is meant to be a lesson of some sort, and the art is decent enough, but I found it as forgettable as the main character.
