The Boat-Neck Top Is Spring's Most Elegant Trend |Best Knockoff Luxury Clothing

published 17 March 2024

As spring comes into vision and I'm no longer forced to don a jumper day in and day out, I'm looking to invest in a couple of new tops, shirts or blouses to elevate my outfits with. Having found the perfect billowy cotton blouse, I'm now turning my attention to a does-it-all top that's simple, elegant and easy to dress up or down. I didn't have to search for long before I stumbled upon the ultimate capsule-wardrobe buy that ticks these boxes and can be scouted out at many of my favourite high street brands.

The object of my affection? The classic boat neck top. Featuring a long and narrow neckline, the boat neck top's design is simple yet impactful. Revealing a sliver of skin from shoulder to shoulder, there's something so undeniably chic about this top style. My colleagues agreed with this sentiment when we were talking earlier, too.

Available in a range of fabrics that all offer slightly different looks, the boat neck top can take many forms. In a lightweight, silk composition, a boat neck blouse can be styled with wide-leg trousers or sweeping skirts for a tasteful ensemble you can wear to parties and evenings out. In a light cotton or jersey material, the top takes on a more casual guise, pairing well with denim or linen.

Available across a selection of high street and designer brands, the boat neck top can be picked up at a range of price points. From Marks Spencers' classic striped style, to Acne Studios' chic draped top, read on to discover our favourite options to shop right now.
