Lauren's Wave Float Top in Azure Bauhaus Swimmers Viscose

Floaty, colourful and so easy to throw on, this is exactly the sort of top I love having in my wardrobe!

For my Matchy Matchy Wave Float Top, I chose our G&G exclusive Azure Blue Bauhaus Swimmers Viscose Poplin. The fluid fabric works so beautifully with the relaxed shape and soft gathers, and I love how the playful swimmers print brings the whole thing to life.

If you'd like to recreate my Wave Float Top, you'll find your shopping list below. I've also included my Wave Float Top Tips video, with lots of extra guidance to help you along the way.

Lauren's Notes:

Fabric choice: This lightweight viscose poplin has a lovely soft drape and movement that's perfect for the floaty shape and gathered details.

Styling tip: I love keeping things simple with this one and wearing it with plain trousers, shorts or jeans so that gorgeous swimmers print can really stand out.

Difficulty level: A lovely project for building your confidence with lightweight fabrics and techniques such as gathering and neckline binding, with my Top Tips video there for extra help too.
