Fabric & Care

80% Cotton 20% Viscose

This cotton has a slight crinkle which may appear to shrink if you had dried in an airing cupboard or in direct heat. for best results, press or iron when slightly damp using a steam iron and your kaftan will spring back to length. Avoid ironing on necklines or areas with crystals or sequins.

We recommend hand washing in lukewarm water using a non biological powder or liquid for any cottons with beading or crystals on, to preserve the detail and quality of our cotton clothes.

When hand washing cotton beach dresses or cotton kaftans, as with all dark dyed and hand dyed fabrics, some colour may wash out which is more apparent when hand washing. Wash in lukewarm water. Rinse in cold water. Colour will only run if you have used hot water over 40* and if you have used a biological detergent which may contain a stain removing or bleaching agent.

Remove excess water and then hang dry immediately, always reshape whilst damp. Test any stain removers on the inside of coloured fabrics first. We suggest gentle baby wipes to gently remove stains, always test first. If you are washing your items on holiday, please rinse and drip dry in the shower and dry in the shade as direct sunlight may reduce the colour on the wet garment.

Do not machine wash. Do not spin in a machine to remove excess water as this will make the cotton fabric compact and appear to shrink. Excess heat in a tumble dryer and washing machine may shrink your garment.

Style Positano
SKU: LB-POS-BK-S

Black Off Shoulder Holiday Top Positano by Lindsey Brown

The Positano is an effortless black cotton holiday top designed for warm weather escapes. Cut from lightweight, breathable cotton, it has a relaxed silhouette and an elasticated Bardot neckline that can be worn elegantly off the shoulder or slightly higher for a more relaxed look. Finished with intricate metallic gold embellishment around the neckline and cuffs, Positano brings just the right amount of shimmer to daytime dressing. The gold detailing catches the light beautifully without feeling overly dressy, making it an easy choice from beachside lunches to sunset drinks.

Beautifully Detailed

The contrast of timeless black cotton and soft metallic gold gives Positano its distinctive Lindsey Brown character. Delicate embellishment highlights the neckline and cuffs, while the softly bloused sleeves and floaty body keep the silhouette relaxed and feminine. Lightweight cotton makes it comfortable in warmer climates and easy to style throughout the day.

How to Wear

Wear Positano with the matching black cotton shorts for an effortless resort co-ord, or style it with white linen trousers and flat sandals for lunch by the sea. For evenings, pair it with wide leg black trousers or denim, gold jewellery and a simple sandal. Its relaxed shape and versatile neckline make it an easy piece to pack for Mediterranean escapes, cruises and winter sun holidays. From Barbados to the Amalfi Coast, Positano is designed for days that begin by the water and end over dinner.
