I cannot wait to wear this top. It’s so soft and can pair with a blazer, or be worn on its own.

Magnífica la hechura

El material, diseño y acabados son inmejorables, las dos prendas que adquirí son elegantes en su sencillez, la calidad se nota en el tejido de la tela y las costuras.

Frequently asked questions

Which size should I choose?

The fit is regular. Take your usual size; if you are between two, take the larger one. Maëlle is 1.70 m tall and wears an S. The size guide gives all the flat measurements.

Does it shrink in the wash?

Not if you wash it at 30 °C and dry it flat. Avoid the tumble dryer, which can tighten the knit. The care guide explains each step.

What is the difference with the long sleeve?

Same workshop in Portugal and same combed cotton. The short sleeve is a lighter jersey (160 gsm) with a crew neck; the long sleeve is thick cotton (220 gsm) with the sailors' boat neck.
