Italian term

allaciatura a polo

Italian to English Other Textiles / Clothing / Fashion
I was wondering if "allacciatura a polo" is simply a "polo shirt style fastening" when used to describe a women's blouse?


Blusa con allacciatura a polo con bottoni a vista
Blouse with polo shirt style exposed fastening


I would be grateful for any input.
Proposed translations (English)
4 polo-style buttons

Yes. Just try Google Images. Strictly speaking it should be polo-shirt-style.

polo-style buttons

"Blouse with polo shirt style exposed fastening" sounds like translatorese. It's enough to just say "blouse with polo-style buttons."

It's usually a given that buttons are exposed unless the placket is specifically French-style or it's explicitly stated that buttons are hidden.
