Description

Channel a little Roman Holiday elegance with the beautifully feminine Gretchen Top. With its neat, tailored fit, delicate pleats and sweet cap sleeves, this is one of those tops that feels timeless the moment you put it on. The lightly flared shape skims the body in a flattering way while still feeling comfortable and breathable.

Crafted from a breathable blend of organic cotton and linen, it’s a perfect warm-weather piece that feels light and fresh against the skin. The button-through front and softly structured silhouette give it that polished, slightly vintage feel — very Audrey Hepburn on a summer city break.

It’s fitted but not restrictive, making it ideal tucked into skirts, worn with denim, or layered under a light jacket.

Size Guide

The Gretchen Top has a neat, fitted shape, so sizing can depend slightly on bust.

  • Sue (5'0", UK size 6) would wear the size 8 for a comfortable fitted look.
  • Hil (5'3", UK size 10/12) would wear the size 12 to keep the fit neat but not restrictive.

Bust Tip: If you have a fuller bust, we recommend sizing up to keep the button front sitting smoothly.

General Rule (for Linen Blends): Linen doesn’t stretch but softens beautifully with wear, becoming more relaxed and comfortable over time.

Why We Love It

We love how this top manages to feel both polished and easy at the same time. The organic cotton and linen blend keeps it cool and breathable, while the pleats and cap sleeves give it that classic, feminine silhouette.

It’s also the kind of piece that makes you feel instantly put together — perfect if you like clothes that look elegant but still feel effortless to wear.

Styling Suggestions

Hil’s Look – Classic & Polished: Hil would tuck the Gretchen Top into tailored trousers or a midi skirt, adding a leather belt, statement earrings and a bright lip for a polished, Audrey-in-Rome feel.

Sue’s Look – Effortlessly Cool: Sue would style it with skinny jeans or fitted denim, layered under a relaxed blazer or cardigan with her stacked boots or chunky trainers. She loves the neat fit against slimmer trousers.

  • Perfect tucked into high-waisted skirts
  • Lovely with denim for an easy everyday outfit
  • Ideal under blazers thanks to the cap sleeve
  • Add a silk scarf for that subtle Roman Holiday vibe
