The Cordoba Top is inspired by Sézane’s easy summer style. Its simple shell-like lace gives it a light, summery feel, with plenty of texture without being too fussy.
The top has a clean, fitted shape, with a high neckline and a small button closure at the back. It’s an easy piece to wear on its own or layered with other summer staples.
The Cordoba Top is worked bottom-up and is designed to be worn with approximately 5 cm of positive ease, giving it a comfortable and flattering fit.
