Draped Cowl Neck Top with Long Sleeves

A long-sleeved top with a cowl neck, cut to drape rather than to hold a line.

The cowl is the whole design. The fabric gathers and falls at the throat in soft folds instead of finishing flat at a seam. Behind it the cloth is 95% rayon with 5% spandex, so it stays breathable, and that small amount of stretch is what makes the fit flattering without ever being tight. The model is wearing a small.

The drape is why this top crosses over so easily. Tucked into something tailored it reads formal; left loose over jeans it does not. Keep the neckline free of jewellery and let the folds do that job instead. One of the few tops that suits an office and a dinner without a change in between.
