Versatile & Chic
Very cute, chic tunic! This easy-to-wear top will keep a gal cool, yet lookin' very stylish during the hot summer months. Yet with the addition of a fitted, longer-sleeved tee beneath, can easily extend it's wear into the cooler seasons. I'm a true size 12(US), but prefer XL-sized tunics for a loose, flowy-fit, and this XL fits perfectly. The neckline is an open-crewneck (see photo of garment on hanger), not so open as to allow for off-the-shoulder wear as depicted on model. The armholes are sufficiently open enough to be comfortable and cool, yet still modest. (I wear this tunic with leggings to Mass (church) and feel well-dressed & comfortably covered-up). The fabric in the product description is listed as "chiffon". This is erroneous. The garment is made from a 60% Cotton/40% Poly blend (see green-circled tag in my photo). While not as "floaty" & sheer as chiffon, this fabric still has that "slinky" hand to it normally found in material of 90% Rayon, albeit ever so slightly heavier and opaque. The advantage is that this top can be worn without an undergarment such as a cami or tank top. The final 4" of the bottom-sides are seam-sewn ruching (actual angled seams, not just "gathered"), resulting in a lightly "bubbled" hem (see red arrows in my photos). The effect is not overt, so those who may find that look intimidating need not worry. The overall quality is quite good. The sewing is mostly serger-type and the finishing neat. No loose threads, missed seams, etc. Lengthwise, the tunic hem hits me 3" above my knees. I'm 5'5", of normal weight, athletic build w/broad shoulders (vs. curvy/busty) with an average torso and longish arms & legs. The tunic arrives in novel packaging: a reusable, soft poly zip bag printed with the "Relipop" brand name. Upon first opening the packaging I noticed a slight "chemical" odor, but this dissipated almost immediately. I'm not sure if it originated with the garment itself, the zippered bag, or a combination thereof. Overall, I'm very pleased with this item and it's already become one of those garments that one reaches for again and again. It looks so stylish and put-together, yet is so comfortable whether with leggings, tights, or skinny jeans, there's just no excuse to wear some other comfy-but-frumpy outfit with this in my closet. I definitely plan to buy several more similar items from Relipop. As my always-well-dressed Mom would say, "It takes the same amount of time to put on a nice outfit as it does a frumpy one"! 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩 Thanks Mom! Highly recommended.
