Posh just refused to allow 'pussy bow' as a description of a floppy self-fabric bow at the neck of a woman's blouse. Any other suggestions for something equally descriptive? Just plain bow seems inadequate. Thanks!
ETA- pussycat bow? Maybe?

Floppy self fabric bow would be fine. I really don't know what a pussy bow is. Lol.

Self tie bow or similar. Personally, I always thought "pussy bow" was tacky, tasteless and degrading. But what do I know.

I live in the beaver state- pussy bow didn't phase me at all 😆 Kittens & cats in old cartoons and children's storybooks often had a big floppy ribbon tied in a bow at their necks lol. That's probably where it came from. Guess it's just another word whose usage has changed over time. Thanks!

Have you tried searching for your top using google image to see what retailers are now calling it?

That's a good idea Val- tie neck seems to be what it's called. Thanks!
