Every Elite Dresser in Shoreditch and Manhattan Trusts This Top to Make Their Outfits Look Trendier

To quote T.S. Elliot, the polka-dot top trend began not with a bang, but with a whimper. While polka-dot dresses like Réalisation Par’s Sadie halter neck style or Nobody’s Child Felicity midi became the crowning occasion wear piece, spotty shirts were covertly cropping up as the everyday alternative to these minimalist yet statement-making ensembles.

At first, polka dot tops silently emerged as the successor to the elegant trend that defined high summer. Perhaps you saw the sole polka-dot top while wandering around London, worn by someone grabbing an iced latte in a ritzy Marylebone coffee shop. However, seemingly overnight, polka-dot tops became unavoidable, appearing in high-street windows, on cool patrons dining at a small plate establishment in Hackney and, crucially, a mainstay in the Who What Wear UK office. The collective adoration sent a clear message: polka dots pandemonium has reached feverish heights.
