Rebellious Audacity
The Soul of the Piece: Staud's "Wells" top is a statement piece that plays on the codes of subtle provocation. Crafted from intense black faux leather with a matte finish, it reinvents the classic tank top, transforming it into a true style statement. Its square neckline and vertical panels create a sharp, fitted silhouette, bringing an instant dose of rebellion to any wardrobe. It's a garment that embraces its edgy side while maintaining absolute precision in its lines.
Why you'll love it: It's the fashion statement piece that can transform even the simplest look. Its strength lies in its duality: it possesses an urban boldness that allows it to be the centerpiece of an evening outfit, while also becoming a surprisingly versatile daytime staple when layered effectively. Its technical fabric offers the grain and look of leather with modern suppleness, while its cropped length allows you to play with proportions for a style that's both sharp and sophisticated.
Style Notes
-
Today's Daring Tip: Break up the leather look by layering it over an oversized men's shirt or a white organic cotton t-shirt. This mix of textures transforms the statement piece into a sophisticated streetwear look.
-
The Evening Statement: Wear it next to your skin with high-waisted black tailored trousers. The square neckline opens up your posture and highlights your shoulders for a sleek and minimalist look.
-
Contrasting Textures: Pair it with a satin skirt or raw denim. The contrast between the matte faux leather and other finishes creates visual depth that makes the all-black look captivating.
The Expertise: The Wells Cut. The success of this design lies in an assembly of panels that sculpt the bust without the rigidity of a traditional corset. Each seam is strategically placed to follow the curves while maintaining an impeccable fit. The use of premium polyurethane ensures that the top retains its crisp shape wear after wear. Fully lined, it provides complete comfort and a flawless finish, true to Staud's Californian aesthetic.
