Tokonatsu means everlasting summer in Japanese. This reversible pullover with curved hemline and an elegant drape is perfect layering with your favourite sleeveless top. It can be worn with a scooped neck, V-neck or the ribbon detail in front, fastened with strings. The back drapes differently too with each variation. It looks and feels good in silk, linen, cotton or light weight wool.
