The Red Rocks Racerback is designed to pair with the Red Rocks Skirt, but it is equally adorable on its own! There are 2 lengths suggested for this top, crop top and full length. There are 2 bust options as well. The bust and sides feature a decorative increasing that flatters curves and enhances shaping (even for small-chested people like myself). The racerback is trendy and fun, and this design can be dressed up or down for all events.
