Tops for women

Whether basic or fancy, women's tops are real must-haves. And they come in many varieties. From simple spaghetti strap tops to sleeveless blouses, it's all here. Playful tops with lace, flounces or peplums get you fashionably through the summer. Simple satin or silk tops are gorgeous under a blazer. And crop tops are an essential part of upbeat street style right now. Sleeveless tops serve as eye-catchers. At the same time they are wonderfully airy. So you are perfectly dressed for shopping with friends, chilling at the beach and partying in the evening. What's in right now? Here are the most important trends.

Well cut

As trouser waistlines get higher and higher, tops part with every superfluous inch of fabric. Crop tops add lightness to high-cut bottoms. They reveal a tantalising flash of skin without giving too much away. That's what makes the design so exciting. But the concept also works at shoulder level. That's why cutouts are such a hot trend, like: 

Cold-shoulder – tops with sleeves that leave only the shoulders exposed
Open and high-necked at the same time with cutouts at the neckline
  Interesting back features look great from behind
Waist flashing – side cutouts look subtle and daring, almost like an optical illusion
 

Asymmetric is awesome

Show everyone a different side of you with one-shoulder tops. Asymmetry is back and cooler than ever. It combines two trends: off-shoulder and flounces. This gives them opulence and fire. With colourful patterns or bright colours, this type of one-shoulder top is a crazy eye-catcher. But there are also simpler variants. They just let their exciting shape speak for itself. This makes them a great match for eye-catching shorts  and summer skirts. Perfect the look by continuing the asymmetry with the accessories . For example, wear earrings of different lengths with it, or add eye-catching arm jewellery  to the off-shoulder side.

Structured

Fine rib knit is wonderfully versatile. It can be both sporty and elegant. Made from soft cotton, ribbed tank tops look decidedly casual. They make your outfit look effortlessly stylish. Slightly shiny qualities in turn put the focus on the fine structure. It nestles against the skin and creates flowing contours. This material supports you everywhere. Our favourites for the office and after work are halter tops or V-neck tops in subtly shiny ribbed knit. 

Lovely lace

Lace tops are timeless classics. We like the combination of shiny satin or silk and fine lace. This looks seductive and playful at the same time. Lace tops go just as well with tough leather leggings as they do with light chiffon skirts. They can be combined with trendy street styles or worn as skin-flattering under shirts. A top in plain black belongs in your wardrobe. It just goes with everything. But cream and soft earth tones also look great on this style of top. You should use similarly delicate tones for the accessories. Silk tops pair best with delicate chains and narrow rings.

FAQs

What do I wear under a top?

Since tops are usually made of thin fabric, it is recommended to wear a bra underneath. Spaghetti straps work best on their own. Therefore, choose a strapless bra. The same goes for one-shoulder tops. Here a strap would ruin the effect. With cutouts and deep back cutouts you have to reach a little deeper into the bag of tricks. For example, there are adhesive bras that do not require a band at all. Sometimes, however, it is also appealing to set an accent with a deliberate bra flash. Choose either a contrasting colour or a material that contrasts with the structure of the top. This can be, for example, a beautiful lace trim that peeks out from under a plain satin top. 

Which tops are suitable for hot days?

In tropical temperatures, light tops are particularly pleasant. However, sweating can become an unsightly problem on warm days. You don't want big circles under your armpits, after all. If you sweat quickly, black or heavily patterned tops are recommended. Here, stains are not noticed so quickly. The same goes for layered tops with crochet lace. Tops with large flounces are also helpful if they cover up the area. 

How should I pack tops for a holiday?

Tops are unquestionably one of the absolute essentials for summer holidays. They look great, are lightweight and take up hardly any space. But how do they arrive crease-free? The rule of thumb for packing applies here: heavy things belong on the bottom, light things on the top. So tops should get packed last in your suitcase. Prevent creases by rolling simple tops instead of folding them. Creases mainly occur when garments slip and rub against each other in the bag. You can prevent that with the baking paper trick. Place one sheet between each to separate delicate tops and blouses from other pieces.
