Design Details and Benefits
- Point collar and full placket - give the top a shirt-like structure that a plain knit tank would not have
- Matching stripe texture on both pieces - means the set reads as coordinated rather than two separate basics
- Relaxed shorts length - sits above your knee for ease of movement rather than a fitted cut
The collar and placket are what give this set more structure than a typical knitted beach top. A collarless crop top in the same fabric would read as loungewear only, but adding a proper collar and button front means you can wear the top on its own over trousers later in the year. Worth knowing before you order: the knit is open throughout, so this sits closer to a coverage layer than a fully opaque outfit.
