Women's Blue Broderie Woven Collar Detail Crop Knitted Top

The standout feature is the broderie-trimmed collar - its scalloped, floral-cut edge sits wide across the collarbone and reads as a separate piece layered over the knit, giving one garment the effect of two. Cut to a cropped length that sits just at the waistband, the top tucks neatly into high-waisted bottoms or skims the top of straight-leg jeans without bunching. Short, ribbed-cuff sleeves keep the silhouette neat and season-appropriate - substantial enough for spring layering, light enough to wear on its own through warmer days. The wool blend fabric insulates and stays naturally breathable, and because it holds its structure well, the collar lies flat and the body retains its shape wash after wash. A small keyhole opening sits beneath the collar, adding a quiet detail that breaks up the neckline without revealing too much - true to the Dorothy Perkins ethos of trend-led dressing that stays covered-up and considered. A brunch outfit that looks considered without requiring much effort - that's exactly where this top earns its place. The broderie collar does the talking, so the rest of the look can stay relaxed. Pair it as the model does: straight-leg jeans, Mary Jane flats, nothing fussy. The collar's contrast gives the outfit enough of a talking point that you don't need to add much else. For a baby shower or a casual get-together, swap the jeans for wide-leg trousers in a neutral and let the collar remain the focus. It also tucks cleanly under a blazer if the weather turns, with the collar folding over the lapel for a layered finish that still looks intentional. The cropped cut works best when something is tucked in or sits high-waisted beneath it - a floaty midi skirt keeps the proportions balanced and moves the look slightly dressier without crossing into formal territory. This is the kind of piece that earns repeat wear because it slots into what you already own. | Dorothy Perkins Women's Broderie Woven Collar Detail Crop Knitted Top in Oatmeal | Size: Small Colour: blue
