2 hrs confidence: peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1colour block top Explanation: 'Colour block' / 'block colour' seem to have about the same number of hits in the google search I did. I actually prefer the latter, but the former might be slightly clearer? As to fabric, if it's "bedruckt" (printed) I think that rules out knitwear. And as we have no further information as to style (shirt, blouse, tunic etc) I'd go with the very general 'top'. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2012-06-23 18:01:10 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- cf: http://www.ewm.co.uk/colour-block-top.html http://www.next.co.uk/x492688s1 |
