The case for the Cosmics in linen

A top does not need to be complicated to be useful. The Cosmics proves it — linen, dark blue, and a cut that stays out of the way.

Fit

The cut is regular. Room through the thigh, a straight fall, relaxed without looking oversized. Between sizes, take the smaller one.

How to wear it

Pair it simply. A knit polo and suede shoes is enough. Avoid a second pattern — the Cosmics looks best when everything else is calm.

Fabric

The fabric is linen with a slight texture. Under daylight it reads dark blue; indoors it goes a shade deeper, which is typical of good dyeing.

Care

Wash with similar tones for the first few cycles. linen can release a little dye; after that it settles.

Worth knowing

Colours within the range are dyed to sit together, which makes combining two pieces from the same fabric straightforward.

Simple, well made, easy to live with. That is the whole argument.
