This notched boat neck tank with visible waist and bust shaping is a fresh update on a classic style. Valley Yarns Leverett, a cotton/ linen blend, has a crisp hand and beautiful stitch definition that pairs well with the elegant simplicity of this design. A wear-with-anything capsule wardrobe piece that would be right at home in Audrey Hepburn’s closet, its sophistication is suitable for every occasion from the office to dinner out.
