Viscose Knot Waist Detail Jersey Top With Asymmetrical Hem

A fixed knot sits off-centre at the waist, gathering the fabric into radiating folds that draw the eye and define the silhouette without the need for a belt. The asymmetric neckline crosses diagonally with soft ruching at the shoulder, giving the top a constructed quality that reads as intentional rather than draped. Viscose in the fabric blend delivers a soft drape and cool handfeel, allowing the jersey to skim the body and fall cleanly rather than clinging. The hem drops to a sharp diagonal point on one side - a deliberate line that adds length and interest, particularly when worn with slim trousers or tailored wide-leg styles. Long fitted sleeves balance the volume at the centre, keeping the overall shape neat and polished from shoulder to cuff. A work dinner, a gallery opening, a smart lunch - this top earns its place in the more considered end of the wardrobe. The knot detail does the structural work, so everything else can stay simple. The model pairs it with wide-leg leather-look trousers, which let the asymmetric hem play out fully and ground the look with a sharp, modern edge. For the office, it sits equally well tucked loosely into a tailored midi skirt, the diagonal hem just visible below the waistband. Come evening, swap in heeled mules and a sleek clutch and the top holds its own without needing a jacket over it. The slim fit and off-centre detailing mean it works hardest on its own - layering would obscure the knot, which is precisely the point of the piece.
