Tops and blouses for women, made from breathable linen, soft cotton gauze and light cotton. Every top here is cut in an easy, flowy shape that tucks into high-waisted pants, skims over a skirt, or layers under a kimono when the evening cools. They come in calm neutrals that mix with everything you own: white, cream and ivory, black, beige, brown and sage green.

FAQ
What are the most breathable tops for summer?
Linen and cotton gauze. Linen is crisp and dries quickly, and double gauze is soft and airy. Both let air move far better than polyester or jersey. Read the best fabrics for hot weather.
Which tops work for the office?
Choose cleaner shapes: the Short Sleeve Boat Neck Linen Top, the V-Neck Linen Shell Top or the Cotton Gauze Button Back Top. Wear them tucked into wide leg pants, with a blazer if needed.
Are white linen and gauze tops see-through?
Lighter colours show a little more in bright sun. The Square Neck Tie Back Crop Top is lined, and double gauze is two layers, so it's less sheer than single-layer fabrics. A nude bralette or camisole works well under unlined white tops.
How do I wash linen and gauze tops?
Wash cold on a gentle cycle and hang or lay flat to dry. Gauze never needs ironing. Linen can be lightly steamed, or worn as it is for a relaxed look.
