• Horizontal rows of sequins run across the body, separated by gathered tulle ruffles that give the front a tiered, dimensional quality - the kind of detail that catches light as you move.
• The sleeves are sheer tulle trimmed with frilled edges at regular intervals, so they carry the same ruffled rhythm as the body without adding bulk to the arm.
• A high crew neckline keeps the silhouette covered and refined, making this an occasion piece that works without the need for layering underneath.
• Tulle fabric sits lightly against the body - airy enough that the top doesn't feel heavy despite its decorative surface, and it holds its shape rather than clinging.
• The cropped hem skims just below the waist, sitting neatly over high-waisted bottoms without bunching or pulling.

This top slots into the wardrobe as the piece that makes everything else around it look considered. Tucked into a wide-leg trouser or a floor-length satin skirt, it carries the weight of a full occasion outfit on its own - no statement jewellery required, though the model's drop earrings show how a single delicate accessory complements rather than competes. For a wedding or graduation, pair with tailored wide-leg trousers and a pointed heel for a look that is dressy without being overdone. It also has the kind of versatility that works equally well with dark-wash wide-leg jeans and a strappy heeled sandal, exactly as styled here, when the occasion calls for something more relaxed but still polished. The sheer sleeves and ruffled detailing mean the top does the talking - keep everything else clean and simple to let the texture shine.
