Tops Guide
Getting the Fit Right
Most of these don't stretch
Over half the tops we carry are cut from woven fabric with no stretch at all, so the fit comes from the cut rather than give. That makes the measured bust and waist worth reading before you size — the Fit & Measurements section lists this garment's own numbers where the maker supplied them.
What they're made of
Polyester, cotton and rayon blends make up most of the edit, with spandex appearing where a style is meant to move. The full composition is on every product page, and it is the best guide to how a top will feel and hang.
Opacity, stated plainly
Where the maker tells us, each page says whether a fabric is opaque or semi-sheer. It is the detail most often missing elsewhere and the one most likely to send something back.

Before You Order
Every product page shows its own estimated delivery window, because some pieces are stocked in US warehouses and others ship from overseas. Shipping is free on every order and tracking is included.
Use the size guide link next to the size options. Where we hold a size table for that brand it opens right there, and the Fit & Measurements section lower down lists this exact piece's measurements whenever the maker publishes them.
Returns are open for 30 days on unworn items in their original packaging, for a refund or an exchange. The full terms are in our refund policy.
Roughly half our range is stocked in US warehouses and the rest ships from overseas. The delivery estimate on each product page tells you which one you are looking at.
Sometimes, and not on a schedule — our range comes from boutique labels in limited runs. New styles arrive weekly, so the New In collection is the best place to check.
