FAQs

What size is this garment?

This specific piece is a UK size 14.

Can I put this in the dryer?

No, it is highly recommended to air dry this item to prevent damage to the delicate mesh and ruffle layers.

Is the material stretchy?

The mesh fabric offers a slight natural give for comfort, but it is not a heavy-duty stretch material.

What should I wear underneath?

A black camisole, bandeau, or simple tank top is recommended due to the sheer nature of the mesh fabric.

Is this suitable for machine washing?

While hand washing is preferred for longevity, if you must use a machine, use a mesh laundry bag on a delicate cycle.

How do I style the fluted sleeves?

The sleeves are designed to be flowy; ensure they are not restricted by tight jacket cuffs if layering in colder weather.

Troubleshooting

The fabric looks too sheer when worn

Wear a matching black camisole or a sleek tank top underneath to provide opacity while maintaining the aesthetic.

Ruffles have become flat after storage

Lightly steam the ruffled areas from a distance to restore volume, or gently shake the garment while hanging.

Snags appearing on the mesh

Avoid contact with sharp jewelry like bracelets or rings when putting on the top, and carefully inspect for threads.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Adds sophisticated volume with unique ruffle detailing
  • Versatile black and polka dot pattern pairs easily with trousers or skirts
  • Lightweight and breathable mesh construction
  • Elegant fluted sleeves provide a contemporary fashion-forward aesthetic

Cons

  • Sheer fabric necessitates wearing an undershirt or camisole
  • Delicate material requires gentle handling during cleaning
  • Hand-wash recommended to maintain structural integrity of ruffles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your mesh top, always prioritize gentle care. Because the garment features delicate ruffle layers, avoid machine washing with heavy items like denim or items with zippers that could snag the mesh. It is recommended to hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent. Hang to air dry, as high heat from a tumble dryer may damage the mesh structure or cause the ruffles to lose their intended volume. If the garment appears wrinkled, use a low-temperature steam setting from a distance rather than direct iron contact.
