FAQs
What material is the top made of?
The top is constructed from a bandage knit, primarily composed of polyester, designed for a sculpted fit.
How should I determine my size?
Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart. The 'Slim Fit' indicates a closer cut to the body.
Can the zip be removed or altered?
The zip is an integral part of the design and is not intended for removal. Alterations should be done by a professional seamstress.
Is this top suitable for all seasons?
Yes, the long sleeves make it versatile. It can be worn alone in warmer weather or layered under jackets and blazers in cooler conditions.
What kind of bra should be worn with this top?
The square neckline is relatively open, allowing for various bra styles. Seamless or strapless options are often preferred for a smooth appearance.
How do I care for the PU tipped detailing?
Wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive rubbing on the PU trim. Professional cleaning is recommended for stubborn marks.
Troubleshooting
Stretching or loss of shape
Ensure the garment is laid flat to dry and avoid excessive heat when ironing. Store folded rather than on a hanger to prevent stretching.
Pilling on the knit fabric
Gently remove any small pills with a fabric shaver or comb. Avoid abrasive contact with rough surfaces.
Discoloration of PU tipping
Consult a professional dry cleaner experienced with PU or leather trims for specific cleaning advice. Avoid direct contact with oil-based products.
