Zenana Mushroom Cropped Interlock Short Sleeve Top

Interlock is a knit construction rather than a fibre, and it is the reason this top feels the way it does. The fabric is knitted so that both faces come out smooth, which gives it more body than a standard jersey and a cleaner surface on the outside. On a cropped short sleeve top that translates to something that holds its shape against the body instead of clinging in the wrong places.

The fabric is 80%NYLON, 20%SPANDEX and is slightly stretchy, which is a high spandex content and exactly what you want in a piece cut close. It moves with you and returns to shape rather than growing through the day. The cut is cropped and the styling is basic in the best sense, with no detail competing for attention. Sizes run S, M and L, covering a bust from 34 to 40 inches and a waist from 26 to 33 inches. Have a look at the measurement table below and choose from the numbers rather than habit.

Cropped tops want a high waist underneath, and that is where this one lives. Wear it with high waist jeans and sneakers and the proportion does all the work for you. It goes with leggings for something sportier, and with a long skirt when you want the crop to balance the volume below. Mushroom is a warm greyish neutral, which means it behaves like a basic and sits against black, cream, denim or a brown just as easily. Layer an open shirt or a cropped jacket over the top and it becomes the base of an outfit rather than the whole thing.
