Product Insights
A fitted front anchors movement while the draped back introduces tradeoffs of shifting with extended wear and subtle sheerness that makes braless wear inadvisable (black less revealing). Made from 95% recycled polyester with 5% spandex, maintaining shape requires cold wash and line-dry to preserve spandex stretch; dryer heat above 140°F permanently degrades it. Sizing is true-to-size for a fitted look or size up for looser fit, with brand advising machine wash inside out in a mesh bag and pretreat collars with enzyme remover. The tradeoff is that the open back design shifts over time, but the recycled material offers strength and colorfastness equal to virgin polyester.

Deep Research
Wash care and preventing snags on micromesh
- Since the micromesh knit can catch on hook-and-loop fasteners, zipper teeth, or jewelry, turning the top inside out and machine-washing it in a zip-up fine-mesh laundry bag provides a physical barrier that dramatically reduces the risk of pulls, extending the garment's wearable life.
- The 5% spandex that gives the top its stretch and recovery begins to degrade at dryer-level temperatures above 140°F, so line-drying instead of tumble-drying preserves the fitted silhouette and prevents permanent loss of elasticity over multiple washes.
- Polyester micromesh can develop small surface pills at friction zones like underarms or where a bag strap rubs; a battery-operated fabric shaver removes them cleanly without thinning the fabric, restoring the smooth hand feel without damage to the mesh-spandex structure.
- Polyester's oleophilic nature makes it prone to trapping skin oils and lotions, which can oxidize into yellowed, stiff patches; applying a small amount of enzyme-based stain remover to the collar and cuffs before each wash prevents buildup and keeps the micromesh feeling supple.
- Recycled polyester micromesh performs identically to virgin polyester in tensile strength and colorfastness, meaning the black colorway resists fading and the fabric maintains its drape and structural integrity through repeated cold-water launderings, so the sustainable material does not come at the expense of longevity.

Q&A
4 answered- How does the fit compare to typical Simons sizing? Is it true to size for a fitted style, or should I size up?
- This is a fitted style, so we recommend sticking with your usual Simons size. If you prefer a looser fit, you may want to size up.
- Is the micromesh fabric sheer or opaque? Would a nude bra be needed under the dark colors?
- The micromesh is subtly sheer — a nude bra is recommended under lighter colors, though the black version is less revealing. For reference, the similar Cropped Gathered Micromesh T is described as having a double layer that is 'subtly sheer.' [1][2]
- Does the draped open back stay in place during movement, or does it tend to shift? Is it suitable for wearing without a bra?
- The fitted front helps keep the top in place during movement, but the draped open back may shift with extended wear. Due to the sheer fabric, wearing without a bra is not recommended unless you are comfortable with the exposed look.
- How much stretch does the fabric have? Does the spandex help it retain shape after multiple wears and washes?
- The fabric contains 5% spandex, giving it good stretch and recovery. With proper care (cold wash, hang dry), it should retain its shape well over time.
