Detail
Yoko Top is a wrap top with a sideway construction in rib stitch pattern that creates a graphic element of design. It is worked flat, in two separate reversed pieces that begin at the front, and are then grafted together at mid back. The top has I-cord shoulder straps and waist ties, and is finished with I-cord edges. Cropped and with a deep front neckline silhouette, you can wear it as a layering piece or as a summer top.
Yoko Top is designed to have a negative ease, and is size inclusive.

Wore it teaching my afternoon art class and it survived glitter glue handprints and three sink washes between sessions the color stayed vibrant the seams held strong and the fabric dried quickly hanging over my chair the support team even sent care tips when I emailed about stain removal truly thoughtful from start to finish
Ms. ********nin
Nice fabric and clean lines but ran slightly small I ordered my usual size and it fits snug across the shoulders good for layering but not ideal if you prefer relaxed fits still love the drape and the service team swapped it free and fast no hassle

Put it on straight out of the mail and wore it to coffee with friends felt instantly put together no adjusting no tugging just effortless flow the neckline is flattering not too deep not too high and the hem hits perfectly at my high hip love how it moves with me and the team sent a handwritten note with my order that meant a lot

Great top for casual office days breathable and polished looks sharp under a blazer but the tag is slightly scratchy I snipped it off no big deal and the color matched the photo exactly shipped fast and arrived neatly folded in a reusable cotton pouch

Wore it to my sister’s garden wedding and got three compliments before cocktail hour the color is even more luminous in person and the back detail made me feel elegant without trying too hard the fit hugs but doesn’t squeeze and the fabric didn’t wrinkle in my tote all day super happy with my purchase

Grabbed this for a weekend farmers market stroll and wow it was the perfect vibe soft drapey but structured enough to look intentional the sleeves hit just right at my forearm and didn’t ride up while carrying bags customer service replied within an hour when I asked about sizing guidance and the box arrived two days early
