This top features a feminine neckline and wide shoulders, and is cut short at the waist. It's a versatile essential that can be worn multiple times.

Made from high-quality organic cotton, the fabric has a unique linen-like texture with alternating thick and thin threads in the warp and weft. It's incredibly soft to the touch and drapes beautifully.

The natural color is a creamy ivory achieved using potash ash from banana fibers, combined with natural earth pigments and vegetable dyes for a truly unique and sustainable product.
