Description
The Pirate Top takes the classic Breton shirt and gives it a beautifully modern twist. With its straight, slightly relaxed shape, square neckline and softly structured shoulders, it has all the easy wearability of a favourite striped top with a few clever details that make it feel that little bit more special.
Delicate pleats add shape at the shoulders, while decorative faux buttons bring another lovely point of interest. Make it in a traditional striped jersey for that unmistakable Breton look, or choose a plain knit to really show off the shape and construction. Comfortable, stylish and endlessly wearable, Pirate is just the thing for jeans, trousers and skirts alike.
