Kiri is the kind of top you can whip up in no time and then wear non-stop. The draping and waterfall effect take centre stage in this halter top with a stand-up collar, but the asymmetrical hem at the centre front adds a lovely little touch. All edges are finished with bias tape, and at the back, Kiri fastens at the nape of the neck with buttons and elastic loops for comfort and ease of wear. Did we mention that this minimalist design has a real wow factor?

Fabric recommendations:
Kiri looks its best in beautifully draping fabrics that allow the drape and waterfall effect to shine through. Think of supple fabrics such as satin, acetate, charmeuse or silk, such as crepe de chine, for an extra elegant, flowing look. Viscose (crepe), lyocell and chambray also work well if you're looking for a slightly more 'daily chic' look, provided the fabric drapes sufficiently. Above all, choose fabrics that move beautifully with you, so that the asymmetrical lines and draping effect are shown off to their best advantage. Avoid fabrics that are too stiff, as these will take the suppleness out of the design.
