This Japanese cupro summer top is proudly made in Australia
This cute top is made from a dark inky grey Cupro fabric.The Sunlight top is the same shape as the Moonlight top but we have cut it on the bias. Cutting on the bias gives the garment more fit, making the fabric drape closer to your body, while cut on straight grain has less ‘give’ and sits away from the body. When fabrics like Cupro are cut on the bias the garment becomes longer and slimmer while on the hanger, but remains it's original length when put onto a body. Bias cutting also allows the raw edges to fray differently as the grain of the fabric is altered.
The Sunlight top has a simple cotton bias bound neckline while the extended cap sleeves are detailed with stitched on cotton bias, that’s layered with a French herringbone ribbon trim, over the raw edge of the top. This detail gives a nice texture. The hem is scooped up at the side seams and left raw to fray a little.
FABRIC
100% Cupro - which is a regenerated Cellulose fibre, created in a 'closed loop' using left over cotton fibres from the Ginning process. Fabric made in Japan.

CARE
Handwash or machine wash in cold water with eco-friendly detergent. Gently steam to soften after laundering or simply wear and body heat will relax the fibres.

FIT
The fit is true to size, being a semi loose style made from a woven fabric without added stretch. It looks best with enough room to allow the fabric to drape.
