Ivory Ribbed Crop Top with Printed Midi Skirt Set

Ribbed knit and a flowing skirt make a good pair because one is fitted and the other is not. The top is ivory, cropped, with a subtle V-neckline and full sleeves. The ribbed fabric has stretch, so it hugs the body comfortably and stays smooth through the day. Below it the midi skirt flows, printed with delicate vertical patterns that give it length and movement.

This is an outfit for a lunch date, a day out with friends, a casual office where dresses are fine, or a low-key evening event. The top pairs later with high-waist jeans and trousers, and the skirt goes with a plain black or white top when you want the print to lead.

• Ivory ribbed knit crop top, V-neckline, full sleeves
• Stretch fabric
• Printed midi skirt

Care: hand wash the top in cold water and dry flat so the rib does not stretch out. Wash the skirt separately, dry in shade and iron on the reverse over the print.
