Cari Top

This cropped top is cut from a crisp, midweight cotton poplin that holds the structure of the sweetheart neckline and puff sleeves with precision. The internal boning provides a corset-like rigidity through the bodice, while the delicate center-front bow adds a soft, feminine contrast to the sharp, matte black finish. It functions as a modern bustier, leaning into a romantic, 90s-inflected silhouette that pairs best with high-waisted separates.

Safety Rating: Fair

Analysis: The composition is primarily cotton, which is highly breathable and biocompatible, but the inclusion of 2% elastane places this in the "Fair" category. While the elastane is necessary for fit, it is a petroleum-based synthetic that reduces the overall purity of the garment and lowers its biodegradability.
