Emi Top - Denim Melange
Emi's Design Focus
The Emi Top makes getting dressed the easiest part of your day. She was our first top built around the rule of thirds: her shorter hem lands below the waist and above the hip, right where high-rise bottoms begin, so the proportions come together on a shorter frame with no tucking or knotting. She's also the original that inspired our Ava Top. The relaxed body drapes without clinging and eases in toward the hem, the scoop neck stays open and easy while giving you coverage where you want it, and the angled sleeves are cut roomy so nothing pulls when you reach or lift. She's finished enough to wear on her own and short enough to sit cleanly under a cardigan or jacket for easy layering.
- Neckline: Scoop neck
- Sleeve: Short angled sleeve, cut roomy for easy movement
- Body: Relaxed through the body, easing in toward the hem
- Hem: Shorter length, designed to land below the waist and above the hip — approx. 22 inches long (measured on a size Medium)
Our Melange fabric is made from a unique blend that gives it a soft, heathered look: a subtle mix of tones running through the fabric, so even a solid color has a little depth and texture.
It's our lightest fabric, so it feels airy and easy to wear. It's ideal if you love the comfort of our rayon pieces but want a top with a more relaxed, lived-in look.
How it compares: Melange is the lightest fabric in our line, even lighter than our lightweight rayon jersey. If you're looking for more structure, our Soft Ponte styles have more body while still feeling comfortable. Our Twill Ponte and Double Knit styles are the most structured of all — thicker and more shape-holding, still comfortable because of the spandex blend.
Care Instructions:
Machine wash cold, gentle cycle with like colors.
Do not bleach.
Hang dry for best results.
Heat will cause shrinkage.
Style Tip:
Emi is at her best with a wider leg. For the office, pair her with the Rowan or Milo Pant, a long cardigan and loafers. On the weekend, wear her with the South St. Jogger and sneakers; her shorter hem keeps the wide leg looking clean and intentional.
From Allison:
"The Emi was our first top designed around the rule of thirds: when your top ends at the right point, the whole outfit just comes together. So many of you told us she was the tee you reached for again and again, so we're bringing her back. She's a closet essential for myself and the team because she's easy to wear and style. We worked on making sure the length was just right and the rest of the top was comfortable so you never have to worry if you look good wearing her."

Fabric Comparison
Rayon Jersey
Made from our signature rayon-spandex blend, this lightweight rayon jersey is soft, breathable, and fluid on the body. It has lots of natural drape, allowing the fabric to skim and flow without clinging.
This fabric creates an easy, relaxed silhouette and is ideal if you love tops that feel airy, move with you, and have a more casual, effortless look.
Soft Ponte
Our semi-midweight rayon jersey (soft ponte) is made from a rayon-spandex blend with a smooth, soft hand feel and gentle structure.
This fabric offers more structure and shape retention, meaning it holds the silhouette of the top more clearly while still feeling comfortable and flexible. It’s not stiff, just more polished.
