Currently, if you want this top in black, I'll sew it to order with 100% cotton knit. All other colors are the brand's usual Ecovero knits. Read on for more details.

Short Sleeve, with a bateau neckline that is simply a slotted opening from shoulder to shoulder. Elegantly drapes over the collarbone. Sophisticated and smart. Travel-friendly as a comfortable, packable basic.
Sewn to order, allow about a week to make before it ships.
The fabric of the dress folds in at the neck to create a clean edge uncomplicated by added stitches. Smooth any fabric at the neckline inward if it goes astray while popping it over your head. USA-made rayon jersey knit with yarn-dyed, heathered colors.
This dress's silhouette hides the midsection, with a healthy swing due to the weight of the fabric. Pockets with room to fill. The playful length suits bare legs, leggings, even jeans.
For this one, choose your size based on your shoulders. The neckline will appear strained/taut if you try on a size that is smaller than needed. This dress drapes freely from the bust down.
Made with sustainability-minded Ecovero™ Viscose. ECOVERO™ fibers have been certified with the EU Ecolabel as meeting high environmental standards throughout their life cycle: from raw material extraction to production, distribution and disposal.
CLEANING NOTES
Best care: Hand wash or machine wash delicate cycle, cold water. Smooth it out with hands, laying flat to air dry. Wrinkling falls out with body movement shortly after putting it on, but If you prefer ironing, It's OK to pass a steaming iron gently over surface if needed, garment turned inside out.
Other acceptable care: Dry cleaning is also an option.
Processes to avoid: Do not put in the dryer, or use warm or hot water, it will shrink your garment (mostly in length but also a little in width). Do not use bleach.
