Navy Stripe Detail Top
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I wear this top to work and then straight to dinner?
Yes. The boat neck and straight-fit silhouette read polished enough for a desk day, and the stripe detail gives it enough personality for an evening out. Tuck it into a tailored trouser for the office, then swap to a high-waist skirt and you're done.
Where exactly does the hem sit on the body?
The top measures 22 inches in length, which typically lands at or just below the hip. That makes it a natural pairing for high-waist trousers, skirts, or wide-leg pants, and it stays neatly in place without bunching.
The boat neck looks wide in the photos. Will it slip off the shoulder?
A boat neck sits across the collarbone rather than dropping off the shoulder, so it stays in position. The straight fit through the body also keeps the top anchored rather than shifting around through the day.
What does the ribbed hem actually do for the fit?
The ribbed hem adds a structured edge at the base of the top. It prevents the hem from flaring out or rolling up, so the silhouette stays clean whether you wear it tucked or untucked.
Is 100% Acrylic a good fabric choice for a stripe top like this?
Acrylic holds its shape wash after wash and keeps colour consistent, which matters for a multi-stripe pattern where colour contrast is the whole point. It's also lightweight, so the top doesn't feel heavy on the shoulder across a full day of wear.
Does this top require dry cleaning every time I wear it?
The care instruction is Dry Clean. Following it protects the knit structure and keeps the stripe colours from fading or distorting over time. Think of it as a quality-preservation step rather than a frequent inconvenience, since knitwear at this construction level doesn't need cleaning after every single wear.
