A middy blouse is a type of blouse that originated as a part of naval uniform for young girls in the early 20th century. The blouse typically features a square neckline, short sleeves with wide cuffs, and a loose fit that is cinched at the waist with a belt or a tie. The name "middy" comes from "midshipman", the rank held by young naval officers who wore similar blouses as a part of their uniform. Middy blouses became popular as a fashion item in the 1910s and 1920s and were often worn by schoolgirls and young women. Today, the middy blouse has evolved into a versatile fashion item that can be worn in a variety of settings, from casual to dressy.
