Casual yet refined

Enjoyed wearing this piece and would consider purchasing! Double zipper gives versatility and the material is soft. Appreciate the collar for a more "put together" look.

MUST RENT

This top is so versatile!!! I'm honestly regretting not buying it (prob gonna rent again & buy tbh!!). I wore it to work zipped up, but unzip it a little and you've got a super sexy top for a night out or date night! You can also dress this top up or down. Seriously a must rent.

Cute and versatile!

This was a cute piece, but I swapped it for something else because I didn’t wear it a ton. Would be perfect for an everyday office look, or a weekend fit. I liked that the zipper placement could change the look, and the cropped length is flattering.

Roomy in the waist and hips

Ordered a size S instead of my usual XS hoping that it would look a bit more work-friendly but it was pretty wide in the tummy area. I still wore it but not really the ideal look imo

I thought this might be a little stretchier but it's not. It's cute but I would size down if I rented again for a more fitted look.

Great Layering Piece!

This fit pretty well! I'd say it's slightly short if you have a long torso. This was a perfect layering piece for traveling, and the color went with everything! The zipper is a little tough to bring together, but I really love that there's a top and bottom zipper.

Versatile staple. Okay. Runs kind of small

I have a short torso and this felt short to me - but if sized up not sure if it would look baggy or if it would be longer (wish it had another 2 inches to the length). Nothing special but good to rent if looking for a neutral versatile item

Girly and cute for fall!

I loved this, it was well made and looked nice on. I’m normally a small or medium and went with medium here which was a little bit loose in the belly area but still super cute! It can be dressed up or down and is pretty warm and comfy. Would recommend!

Has potential! But too big

I really liked the idea of this top and Madewell’s sizing is always weird on me with a bigger bust and butt. I usually have to size up one or two sizes, so I did and this time it was way too big. I also think it would look a little better on someone who is taller or at least has a taller torso

Quiet luxury, just perfect

After I'm done writing this review, I might go back and buy this. Like yes it's simple, but it is the absolute definition of an elevated basic. I love how you can make it sassy with the bottom zip. I wore it with cream linen pants and a white tank top and white flip-flops and I felt like an extra from Succession. Effortless cool.

Loved!

I wore this a few times and got compliments on it! I wore to work, brunch and on a date! Super versatile. Only thing is the zippers can get a bit wonky so I had to adjust them a few times. I did consider almost buying this though! Flattering and cute

This is a great light weight knit top. Would be great in the early spring. I recommend if you want something cozy but still keep a sleek shape. I would have bought but it was priced too high for the quality.

Dress up or down

Perfect way to go from day to dangerous by just zipping it up (or down). It's a simple top on the thinner side (It's not very warm) but great to go from a more conservative smart casual to a little more low cut and peak of skin.
