Customer Reviews
Absolutely obsessed with this top. I was a bit unsure ordering online, but this top is genuinely lovely in person. The colour is rich, the cut is nice and it sits really well once it’s on.
Really impressed with this purchase. This is the kind of top you can throw on and instantly feel put-together. I’ve styled it with trainers and boots and it works both ways. This top feels very easy to dress up or down. I’ve worn it with simple trainers in the day and swapped to heeled boots and jewellery in the evening and it worked both times. It also layers nicely under coats without bunching up, which is ideal for UK weather. Overall it feels like something I’ll keep in my wardrobe for a long time.
Absolutely obsessed with this top. Really happy with this top. I’ve worn this top a few times now in different situations – running errands, meeting friends, even to the office – and it works every time. The fit is true to size on me, with enough room to layer underneath without feeling bulky. After a couple of washes it’s still holding its shape and colour, which I really appreciate.
Pleasantly surprised by this top. I was a bit unsure ordering online, but this top is genuinely lovely in person. The colour is rich, the cut is nice and it sits really well once it’s on. Length is a bit longer/shorter than I expected, but nothing major.
This is such a good top. For the price, this top really surprised me. The quality is solid, the stitching looks neat and it doesn’t feel flimsy or thin like some things I’ve ordered elsewhere.
