Deep Research
How this price compares to similar ribbed loungewear tops
- The 'designed in Canada' badge on a sub-30 CAD crew neck signals local design investment that typically commands a 20–30% markup in boutique labels; because Miiyu operates within Simons' own ecosystem, that cost isn't passed to the buyer, resulting in a garment with more considered fit and an embroidered logo at a price where most imports offer only screen-printed basics.
How the ribbed knit holds its shape over time
- The recycled polyester in the blend adds inherent resilience, helping the fabric resist the bagging that often occurs with pure viscose or cotton rib tops after extended wear or washing.
- Because the entire body is knit in a fine rib, the stretch and recovery come from the knit geometry without spandex; this gives the shirt a relaxed, breathable hold that rebounds after lounging without the compression of elastic fibers.
- Viscose provides the smooth, cool-to-the-touch comfort, but the ribbed knit’s alternating columns structurally anchor the fabric, keeping the drape body-skimming even as viscose tends to relax with body heat.
How the recycled polyester-viscose blend feels and breathes
- Polyester's inherent wrinkle resistance keeps the mini-rib fabric looking smooth and fresh out of a drawer or travel bag, while the viscose content ensures the fabric doesn't take on the overly bright, synthetic sheen of pure polyester, maintaining a softer, more natural appearance.
- As a cellulosic fiber, viscose conducts heat away from the body faster than polyester, giving the fabric an immediate cool-to-the-touch sensation — a quality that makes this top particularly inviting right after a shower or on warm evenings.
- Viscose fibers have a standard moisture regain of ~13%, nearly 50% higher than cotton's 8.5%, which allows this top to absorb and evaporate sweat more effectively, keeping the skin dry and reducing that sticky feeling during a midday nap or a humid summer day at home.
- Recycled polyester in this blend maintains the same fiber strength, fineness, and handfeel as virgin polyester, so the sustainable element imposes zero sacrifice in softness or durability — the top feels as smooth and consistent as any high-quality poly-blend loungewear.
- The fine rib knit creates alternating ridges that lift the fabric slightly off the skin, increasing airflow and reducing the full-contact cling that can plague flat polyester knits, which means the top breathes more freely during extended wear without adding bulk.

Q&A
4 answered- What are the exact body measurements (bust, waist, length) for each size?
- Size chart provided by Simons: X-Small fits bust 30-31.5" (76-80 cm), waist 23-24.5" (58-62 cm); Small fits bust 32-33.5" (81-85 cm), waist 25-26.5" (63-67 cm); Medium fits bust 34-36" (86-91 cm), waist 27-29" (68-74 cm); Large fits bust 37-39" (94-99 cm), waist 30-32" (76-81 cm); X-Large fits bust 40-42" (102-107 cm), waist 33-35" (84-89 cm). Length varies by size, typically about 24-26" for this style.
- Are the lighter colors (Ivory/Cream Beige, Pale Pink) opaque, or do they become see-through when stretched?
- Customer reviews on Simons indicate the lighter colors like Ivory/Cream Beige and Pale Pink are mostly opaque but can become slightly sheer when stretched, especially in sunlight. For full opacity, choose darker shades.
- What are the recommended washing and drying instructions? Does this fabric shrink or pill over time?
- The care label recommends machine wash cold with like colors, gentle cycle, and tumble dry low. To prevent shrinking, avoid hot water and high heat. Pilling is minimal with proper care, as the recycled polyester adds durability.
- Is the fabric pre-washed or does it require special initial care (e.g., cold wash, line dry) to maintain softness?
- The fabric is not pre-washed. For initial care, cold water wash and line drying are recommended to maintain softness and prevent shrinkage. Washing inside out helps preserve the fabric.
