White Schiffli Elasticated Waist Top
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Schiffli fabric and how does it look?
Schiffli is a machine-embroidered fabric that produces a lace-like texture with fine, repeating patterns woven into the base cloth. On this top, it gives the white cotton a delicate, textured finish that reads as dressed-up without being formal. It's the detail that sets this apart from a plain cotton blouse.
What is the fabric composition and how do I care for it?
It's 100% cotton, so it breathes well in warm weather. Machine wash works fine, which means no trips to the dry cleaner. Just follow the care label instructions on temperature and spin settings.
How does the fit work across sizes?
The waist is elasticated, so it adjusts to your body rather than locking you into a fixed measurement. Front gathers add a relaxed, slightly draped silhouette. It's available in six sizes from XS to XXL, which covers a wide range without needing alterations.
How long is this top and where does it sit on the body?
The length is 22 inches, which typically sits at the hip or just below it depending on your height. It's long enough to tuck or leave out, and works well over high-waist bottoms.
What is the yoke at the back?
A yoke is a shaped panel stitched across the upper back. It adds structure to the back of the top so it drapes cleanly rather than pulling or bunching. On a gathered front style like this, the yoke keeps the overall silhouette balanced.
What occasions can I wear this top to?
The cotton fabric and relaxed fit make it a good pick for daytime outings, weekend plans, and casual travel. The Schiffli texture means it can carry a slightly more put-together look than a plain cotton top without extra effort.
