Great versatile linen top
I have two of this top and plan to get more colors. Can’t beat a classic linen shell.

Love this linen shell and matching skirt
I purchased this piece in sun-dried tomato to wear with the matching linen skirt. Together they make a beautiful set. Quality linen of medium weight and soft texture. I am very happy with this purchase.

Practical shell
Lovely linen fabric; good length for a petite, the sea breeze is a nice color for summer. The black is a good basic too. As others have mentioned there were armhole issues with some colors like the tomato. This is a practical top for your summer wardrobe as a good stand alone or for layering. Happy with this purchase.FTTS

Poor fit
Poor fit in the chest area if you have a fuller bust. Tried several sizes but none of them worked. It needs darts to remove excess of fabric near armholes.

Great item, one complaint
I love this shell- I got the deep red color and am enjoying pairing it with so many other pieces in my wardrobe- my one complaint is that all of the recent items I’ve purchased from you have huge oversized care labels- are these supposed to be removed? So confused!

Too large to be an XXS
I purchased both the shell and the skirt in Sun Dried Tomato - a gorgeous color. If I look at the size chart for the size XXS this item should fit me. However, the item is HUGE on me. The armholes are ridiculously huge. I do not understand why an item that is supposed to be an XXS would be made so large. So, because I am not able to wear the top, I am also returning the skirt. Perhaps if this shell was made in a PP it might have fit better. I love EF linen pieces and this would have been a great outfit. I am happy for all of you that are able to get this in a size that works for you. I also ordered the Black linen skirt in PP and Undyed natural. These skirts are perfect and I love them. It is easy to wear other tops with these neutral colors. It is not as easy or stylish to wear something else with Sun Dried Tomato - I was looking for a monochromatic look.

Very Versatile
A simple sleek shape, worn alone or dressed up with a jacket or blazer.

Wanted to love it but it has armhole issues
I really wanted this top in teal to go with the pants. This shell and the denim one both have armhole problems for me. I am 5'3, 42D. The XL would fit perfectly if not for the outward gape in the front. There seems to be a problem with the sleeveless shell pattern sloper. A shoulder or underarm alteration wouldn't easily fix the gap; it seems to call for a downward angled dart. It's not a new problem; I hope you can fix it in future.
