Blue Waffle Weave/Striped Patriotic Top – L
This Londa Original is a masterclass in making something entirely new from things that already existed. Four distinct fabrics — each with its own personality — come together in a top that's patriotic without being predictable.
The foundation is a royal blue waffle-weave knit, substantial and comfortable, with a clean V-neckline edged in sparkly blue metallic binding that reappears at the sleeves for a deliberate, cohesive design thread. The sleeves themselves are constructed from navy and white pinstripe shirting, flaring into dramatic flounce cuffs that move beautifully with every gesture.
The neckline is where the real artistry lives: an asymmetrical plaid shirting overlay — with intentionally preserved shirt-sleeve plackets and buttons — creates a layered, almost deconstructed collar effect. A red ribbed polo collar anchors the neckline with a pop of bold color, while a single red button adds one final punctuation mark.
Front and back tell slightly different stories — discover both. Perfect for patriotic celebrations, the upcoming 250th Anniversary, or any day you want your outfit to do the talking. All fabrics prewashed before construction. One of a kind. All profits support charitable giving.
