Sleeveless Tops

Ulla Johnson's sleeveless tops carry the hand-smocking and bias-cut construction the label has worked in since its downtown New York start, cut in silk, cotton, and the hand-blockprinted cottons developed with artisan partners abroad. Womens sleeveless tops here sit alongside the brand's wider tops collection, pairing simple camisoles cut with the loose, effortless fit that has defined the label from its first season against more structured styles finished with hand-set trim.

A high neck sleeveless top brings a cleaner, more architectural shape, while a sleeveless blouse in lightweight cotton carries the same ikat-inspired prints and batik-influenced patterns that run through the short sleeve tops edit. Necklines range from draped and asymmetric to classic crewneck and square-cut, with the collection's signature botanical prints, drawn from Ulla Johnson's travels, sitting alongside solids in deep, hand-dyed tones.

Pair a sleeveless top with wide leg jeans or tuck it into a silk skirt the way the label styles its own lookbooks, for a downtown sensibility. Layered under a linen or leather jacket, the same piece takes on a sharper feel, while swapping in the kind of sculptural, artisan-made jewelry Ulla Johnson is known for can shift it from understated to dressed up for an evening out.
