Mela Purdie Tab Shell – French Navy – F65 80089

A navy top with more structure than a tee and none of the formality of a shirt The Mela Purdie Tab Shell in French Navy fills a particularly useful space in the wardrobe: clean and structured enough to wear with tailored pants, but relaxed enough for denim, travel and everyday dressing. Made in Mela Purdie's Lightweight Microprene, the Tab Shell uses a cotton-rich European woven fabric with comfortable stretch and a crisp finish. That combination gives the top definition without requiring a close fit through the body. The silhouette is deliberately relaxed, with short sleeves and a straight hem. At the neckline, a refined rouleau loop and button closure introduces a small amount of detail while keeping the overall design minimal. French Navy makes this particularly easy to build into an existing wardrobe. Wear it with white or lighter neutrals for contrast, back with denim for everyday dressing, or with navy pants when you want a more tonal combination. For women who like their tops uncomplicated but not shapeless, the Tab Shell offers the structure of a woven fabric with the movement and stretch needed for a long day.
