Mela Purdie Swish Plaza Top Mache
Description
Some pieces earn their place in your wardrobe the moment you slip them on — the Swish Plaza Top is one of them. Cut from Mela Purdie’s signature Mache, this Japanese-crafted technical fabric feels like heavy silk but has the resilience of polyester. Finished with airy “air flow” technology, it floats and billows around you with every step, refusing to crease or crumple.
The clean V neckline frames the face and elongates the silhouette, while the curved hem creates a soft, flattering line over the hips. Relaxed 3/4 sleeves keep you cool and comfortable, whether you’re powering through a busy workday or packing it into your carry-on for a weekend away.
- Premium woven Mache with a fluid, non-stretch drape
- Japanese fabrication, crease-resistant and quick-drying — perfect for travel
- Flattering V neckline
- Curved hem for an elegant finish
- Relaxed silhouette with airy 3/4 sleeves
- Designed & made in Australia
