Going Out Tops

<-h2->Satin, sequin and corset going out tops<-h2-> Evenings begin from the waist up. This collection of going out tops moves through satin, lace, sequin, velvet and clean jersey, cut to sit properly against a high rise jean, a leather trouser or black tailoring. One element should carry it, whether that is a defined shoulder, an open back or a fabric that catches the light across a room. Everything else stays plain, and that is where the confidence comes from. She is not building a look from scratch every time, she is choosing the piece that changes the ones she already owns. Satin cools and falls, lace softens, velvet holds the light a little longer. Cropped shapes, corset lines, sheer sleeves and a bare shoulder all appear here, and none of them arrive in quite the same register. There is nothing tentative about any of it, and nothing that needs explaining either. Late dinners, birthdays, the kind of night that starts with one drink and ends somewhere else entirely. She decides what the evening looks like.
