boupha mock neck crop top

The Boupha crop top is a snug base layer that'll highlight your sassy side. It has a comparable fit to our popular rib v-neck or the bodice of the emily dress but shows more skin. Made using super soft 1x1 rib it offers a flattering fit as a standalone piece paired with your favorite high-waisted bottoms or worn beneath a v-neck sweater. Great for any capsule wardrobe as we transition into cooler weather.
About the Makers:
This piece was created by tonlé a Cambodian brand that set the standard for zero-waste fashion from 2008 to 2023. Founded on the principle that nothing should go to waste tonlé transformed textile scraps and remnants from Cambodia's garment industry into thoughtfully designed clothing through innovative production techniques and ethical manufacturing practices. Working with skilled local artisans tonlé proved that beautiful functional apparel could be created entirely from materials destined for landfills. Though the brand closed in 2023 this piece represents one of the last remaining items from tonlé's 15-year legacy of zero-waste design and sustainable fashion. tonlé's legacy continues through Conscious Assembly and KaTik.
