Why it's worth it
Metal buttons where jewellery usually goes.
The Edit
A gathered twist at the left waist — fixed in place by a silver-tone custom metal buckle — turns a close-cut long-sleeve into something with a point of view. The boat neckline sits flat and clean against the shoulder, and the stretch cotton blend follows the body without clinging, the waist ruching adding shape without a seam doing the work. The buckle sits flush rather than protruding, so it reads as jewellery as much as fastening.
