Kite Top Papaya

Regular price $133.00

Are you ever hunting for a top that isn’t tight but finishes at just the right spot on the waist so you don’t need to tuck it in but it’s not too loose and shapeless if you don’t? Well the intention behind this popular design was to solve all those little niggles! 

I'd describe beautiful colour as a warm orange, a deep peachy terracotta tone. It's interesting, yet still versatile as its quite earthy and not too bright and looks particularly lovely worn with blues and greens. 

The unique kite shape offers looseness across the shoulders, bust and tummy for an elegant yet relaxed look, which then slightly draws in to a flat front. The back has a softly billowing effect created by a little elastic along the bottom. This makes it ideal to wear over slim fitted bottoms like a straight or a line skirt, tailored pants, jeans or shorts. But it can also balance out a full or voluminous skirt without having to wear something tight on top.

It’s a style that is super comfortable and versatile for both casual wear or work. It accommodates a variety of body shapes, including bust sizes and whilst being shorter than our other tops, it isn't cropped, finishing just on the hip bones. If you have our Lucy dress you might notice a similar cut to the neckline and sleeve.

They are made from a beautiful fabric called “double gauze” which is made from 2 layers of super soft lightweight organic cotton that has been stitched together to create a gently rumpled texture. It looks and feels lovely and doesn’t need ironing!

As always, handmade ethically in Sydney by a small business in limited edition numbers.

Cold handwash or gentle machine wash on delicates cycle inside a washbag using a mild phosphate free detergent.
