FAQs
What material is the Roman Animal Print Embellished Stretch Top made from?
The top is crafted from a blend of 95% Polyester and 5% Elastane, providing a comfortable stretch jersey fabric.
How should I wash this top to protect the embellishments?
This top requires hand washing only. Do not machine wash, bleach, or tumble dry. Lay flat to dry and iron on low heat from the reverse side, avoiding embellishments.
Is this top suitable for everyday wear or more for special occasions?
While comfortable for extended wear, the sparkling diamante embellishments make it particularly well-suited for party season, evening events, dinners, or other special occasions where you want a glamorous touch.
What type of fit does this top have?
It features a regular fit and is designed to be true to size, offering a comfortable and flattering silhouette.
Can I wear this top with jeans?
Yes, for a stylish smart-casual look, you can pair it with dark wash jeans, especially tailored or slim-fit styles, along with appropriate footwear.
What is the approximate length of the top?
The approximate length of the top is 68cm.
Are the embellishments securely attached?
The embellishments are designed to be durable for normal wear; however, hand washing and gentle care are essential to maintain their security. Avoid harsh scrubbing or snagging.
Troubleshooting
Diamantes appear loose or have fallen off.
Handle the top gently during wear and washing. If diamantes are slightly loose, you might be able to carefully re-secure them with a tiny amount of fabric glue (test on an inconspicuous area first). Avoid abrasive contact with the embellished areas.
Fabric feels stiff or creased after washing.
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and rinsing thoroughly during hand washing. After drying flat, if creases persist, iron on the reverse side with very low heat, being extremely cautious around the embellished shoulder areas.
Top doesn't fit as expected (too tight/loose).
The top is designed for a regular fit and to be true to size. Double-check the size guide if available. If between sizes, consider your preference for a snugger or looser fit. Ensure it's not being stretched excessively during wear, which could affect its shape.
Colour appears dull after washing.
Always hand wash in cool water and use detergents specifically formulated for dark colours. Avoid harsh rubbing during washing. Ensure thorough rinsing to prevent detergent residue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Using this top is straightforward:
- Select Your Size: Choose your regular UK women's dress size (e.g., Size 16).
- Wear: Simply pull the top on overhead. No buttons, zips, or complex fastenings required.
Compatibility
This versatile top is designed to integrate seamlessly into various wardrobe styles:
- Bottoms: Pairs beautifully with `leather trousers`, `tailored skirts`, `smart black trousers`, or `dark wash jeans` for a more relaxed but polished look.
- Footwear: Complement with `heels`, `ankle boots`, or `dressy flats` depending on the occasion.
- Accessories: Due to the embellished shoulders, consider keeping other accessories minimal. Small `stud earrings` or a `simple bracelet` can enhance the look without competing with the top's focal point.
- Outerwear: Can be easily layered under `blazers`, `cardigans`, or `coats` for added warmth and style.
Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity of your Animal Print Embellished Stretch Top and preserve its delicate embellishments, follow these specific care guidelines:
- Hand Wash Only: This is crucial to protect the sparkling diamantes and maintain the fabric's integrity. Use cool water and a mild detergent.
- Do Not Bleach: Bleach can damage the fabric and embellishments.
- Do Not Tumble Dry: High heat can cause shrinkage and damage to the embellishments. Gently squeeze out excess water.
- Dry Flat: Lay the garment flat on a clean towel or drying rack to air dry. This helps maintain the top's shape and prevents stretching.
- Iron on Low Heat: If ironing is necessary, do so on a low setting and always iron the garment inside out. Crucially, avoid direct contact with the embellished areas to prevent melting or damaging the diamantes.
- Storage: Store folded rather than hung to prevent stretching, especially if the top is stored for an extended period.
