Opera Linen Top

£40.00

BEST SELLER

Opera Linen Top is crafted from 100% linen with a 100% cotton lining, combining the breathable, natural texture of linen with the comfort of a soft inner layer. Cut in a relaxed silhouette, it feels light and airy while maintaining a clean, elegant line. Subtle shirring at the centre back and a discreet back zip bring gentle shape and flexibility to the piece, giving it an understated polish that feels refined and easy to wear.

This style is a relaxed fit. We suggest buying one size down.

The natural slub in this fabric is an inherent quality of the fibre: slight variations in texture are part of its character, not imperfections.

Would buy more colours

Really like this and would happily own it in more than navy. The linen is light and the loose cut is comfortable on my shape.

Airy little summer top

Such an airy little top for summer. The back zip makes it easy to get on and off.

The shirred back is clever

The shirred back panel is the clever bit, it gives shape without being tight anywhere, and the little back zip means I don't drag it over my head. The navy is a proper deep shade.

It sold me

It's flattering and sits cleanly across the front. I'm between an 8 and 10 and took the 8 for the relaxed cut, then tweaked the adjustable straps to get the length right. The linen is light to wear.

Take your size down

Take your size down I normally wear a 10 and the 8 was right, the 10 would have been billowy on me. Once sized right it's lovely, the linen has a slubby texture and the navy is smart.

Slots into my work wardrobe

I wear a lot of navy for work and this slots straight in. Tucked into tailored trousers it looks sharp, and the linen keeps me cool on the walk to the office.

Good linen for the price

Lovely bit of linen and the colour is a true navy. The cut is easy but still has a bit of shape.

Barely there for summer

Barely-there for summer and the navy works with all my skirts. Glad I bought it.

Coolest thing I own

I run warm and this might be the coolest thing I own. The linen actually breathes rather than just looking the part, and it sits nicely over high-waisted jeans.

Hot-weather workhorse

I bought this for a run of hot days at work and it earned its place. The linen keeps the heat off even at a desk, and the cotton lining means it isn't see-through. I've worn it tucked into a midi skirt for meetings and loose over jeans at the weekend.

My go-to for warm days

This has become what I reach for on warm days at the office. The linen actually breathes rather than just looking the part, so I stay cool right through the afternoon at my desk.

Exactly what I needed for warmer days

The linen feels light and breathable. The navy is clean and the shape sits well whether tucked in or worn loose.

Very light and relaxed

It's loose and light weight. It's elastic on the back which is also good to pair with other pieces.

Summer Casual

Very breathable to wear.

Straps aside, I love it

The linen is light and the shirred back gives it shape, and the navy is a good strong shade. The only niggle is the straps took a bit of adjusting, but once set it's a top I keep reaching for.

Works with all my summer bits

Light, easy, and it works with everything in my summer wardrobe. The back zip means I'm not wrestling it over my head.

Throw-on and go

The back zip and shirred panel make it dead easy to throw on. It's the linen top I reach for most on hot days.

Even nicer after a wash

I'm fussy about linen because some feels stiff, but this is soft and got even better after the first wash. Wore it to a garden lunch tucked into a skirt and was comfortable all afternoon.

Breezy on a hot day

So breezy on a hot day. I've been reaching for it over shorts most weekends.

Put together on warm days

I bought this for warm days when I still want to look put together, and it does the job. The linen is cool and the cut is easy. Tucked into a navy skirt it reads as smart.

EASY TO WEAR

The shirred back with the little zipper makes it super easy to wear.

Très chic!

Great quality linen. Beautifully cut top which fits perfectly due to the clever elasticated rouching at the back. I would by this in more colours if available. My 4th purchase from Palome in as many weeks. Love this brand.

Sweet and useful

This is such a sweet top and excellent in hot weather. The linen is light enough to give my skin space to breath, and the cut isn’t too tight. It is a simple design, and it isn’t tight on the bust or the abs. It goes with most of my skirts, but I have also worn it with shorts. I am very happy with this piece as it is understated but pretty at the same time.

Chic

Understated and chic. Great that the straps are adjustable, although I do find that they slip off my shoulders when I am sat down. The straight neck is so flattering and the linen material is so comfortable and laid back, yet smart.
