Sylvan Lace Top

This top reinterprets the traditional mandarin collar through a lens of high-contrast texture, pairing a structured, lace-covered bodice with a deliberate, asymmetrical raw-edge hem. The dark walnut floral lace creates a dense, opaque focal point at the chest before tapering into sheer, skin-revealing negative space. It functions as a sculptural piece of evening wear, leaning into the tension between historical silhouettes and modern, skin-baring exposure.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The composition is a blend of 60% cotton and 40% nylon, with a 100% polyester lining. The significant reliance on synthetic polymers like nylon and polyester limits breathability and increases the risk of microplastic shedding and chemical transfer, particularly when worn against the skin.
