As someone in the fiber arts, one thing to note! Many of these are knit not crochet. Crochet can only be done by hand because of the specific technique (machines cannot replicate). Anything that states to be crochet, make sure to look at the price point and understand that a human had to do that all by hand. A crochet dress would take approx 50-60 hours depending on the complexity and size.

Helpful distinction! I kept going back and forth while writing using the term open weave knit and crochet but Lo and behold: NOT interchangeable

Easiest top option is probably a button down, but also like a semi fitted tee. I love the fit of Flore Flore t-shirts and tanks. They’re sold on SSENSE and worth looking at

As usual, incredible takes. Just realised most of the layered crochet pieces you styled are beige or light in colours to make things work!
