Waffle Knit Loose Fit Casual Top Women UK
Waffle Knit Loose Fit Casual Top Women UK
A waffle knit casual top in a loose, comfortable fit with a button placket — the intersection of texture and practicality that makes a waffle knit top considerably more versatile than a plain jersey equivalent. The distinctive waffle grid construction adds visual and tactile interest; the button placket allows the neckline to be adjusted for comfort; the loose fit makes it an easy, unfussy everyday piece.

FAQs
What is waffle knit fabric?
Waffle knit is a fabric construction featuring a distinctive grid or honeycomb pattern of raised squares — resembling the surface of a waffle. The raised texture creates air pockets that add insulation and warmth, and the visual pattern adds depth and interest beyond a plain fabric.
Is this top true to UK sizing?
This runs as a loose, relaxed fit. Check your bust measurement against the size guide below and size as you normally would for the intended loose silhouette.
Is waffle knit comfortable in warm weather?
Waffle knit provides more warmth than a plain jersey, making it most comfortable in mild-to-cool conditions. In summer, it's better suited for indoor air-conditioned environments or layering indoors. In spring, autumn and winter, it's an excellent everyday top.
Can I tuck a waffle knit top in?
Yes — the loose fit tucks neatly into high-waist bottoms. A half-tuck (front only) works particularly well, creating a relaxed but defined silhouette without excessive bunching at the sides.
What is a button placket on a top?
A button placket is a strip of fabric with buttons that runs from the neckline partway down the front of the top. It allows the neckline to be adjusted for comfort — open it fully for a more casual look; button it partially or fully for a neater appearance.
