Eleanor Top

A smooth, lightweight polyester top in a deep brown, the Eleanor Top is an easy layer for women who want one piece that carries them from the desk to dinner.

When your wardrobe is full of tops that only work for one setting, this one bends to the day. The polyester weave keeps its shape and colour through the wash, so it looks the same after months as it did on day one.

That wash-and-wear behaviour is the point: no special handling, no fuss, just pull it on and go.

How to wear it

• Tuck it into tailored trousers or a pencil skirt under a blazer for work.
• Pair it with your favourite jeans and trainers for an off-duty day.
• Layer it under an open cardigan when the weather turns.

Not for you if you prefer natural fibres like cotton or linen against the skin, since this one is fully polyester.
