Introducing Quiet Waters Tank II, a tank that is fitted at the top and flowy at the bottom. Elegant and classy, it is sure to become a staple in your warm weather wardrobe.

A top-down version of my original Quiet Waters, this tank has all of the same details: clean lines, A-line shaping, beautiful lace hem and elegant I-cord trim. And with 20 sizes, it’s now more size-inclusive!

Quiet Waters Tank is intended to be worn fitted in the chest with little to no ease. The tank has A-line shaping allowing for a gentle drape and looser fit when it hits the top of the hips.
