Dune tie-side vest
Inspired by the sweater-vest and crop top trend this tie-side top offers a wearable alternative. The raised treble stitches along the neckline draw the eye, while the tapered shoulders create a flattering shape.
Reminiscent of long summer days at the beach, the raised and textured stitches hint at rippled sand, exploring the dunes or walking along the shoreline. It would look great over a bright summer dress, with linen shorts, or even made up in wool or acrylic for a cosy version to layer over long sleeves and roll necks for the cooler months.
