{"title":"Mela Purdie Relaxed Boat Neck","description":"\u003ch2\u003eMela Purdie Relaxed Boat Neck – Room to Relax, Ready to Go Out\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou have the pants, the shoes and somewhere to be. What you need is a top you can leave untucked, with sleeves that give you coverage and a neckline that feels finished without much extra attention. The Mela Purdie Relaxed Boat Neck is worth considering for exactly those reasons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts broad neckline, three-quarter sleeves and extra room through the waist make it useful well beyond a simple layering piece. Wear it on its own with jeans, let it fall over a cropped pant or add an open jacket for work. Soft stretch jersey lets you move while the relaxed shape gives the fabric space to fall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA relaxed waist changes how you wear a top\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fitted tee can feel too close over a waistband, particularly when you want to leave it untucked. The Relaxed Boat Neck gives you more room through the middle. That ease lets you enjoy a loose hem without having to choose a long, oversized top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLook at where it finishes over your own pants. A smooth waistband, a drawcord and prominent pockets each create a different surface underneath jersey. The aim is for the top to fall freely over the combination you will actually wear, including when you sit down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe core style is described as true to size with an intentionally relaxed fit. Begin with the garment measurements and your usual preference for room, then check the shoulders, bust and upper arms. Stretch helps you move; the right amount of space gives the top its relaxed line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes a boat neckline different?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA boat neckline is broad and gently curved, opening across the collarbone rather than dipping deeply down the front. It gives this top a clear shape around the face and shoulders, even when the rest of the outfit is very simple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTry it with earrings first, or a small pendant if you enjoy one. You may find the neckline provides enough interest by itself. Beneath an open jacket, it also leaves a clear band of colour across the chest without introducing a collar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen trying it on, check the neckline with the bra you intend to wear. Shoulder shape and bra-strap placement differ, so assess that detail on your body. Reach forward and lift your arms to see how the neckline and shoulders sit as you move.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThree-quarter sleeves with a purpose\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sleeves offer arm coverage while leaving your wrists clear. That makes the top an option for women who prefer more than a short sleeve but do not always want a full-length one. It also leaves room for a bracelet or watch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eActual coverage varies with your proportions, so use the photographs as a guide and compare the sleeve on you. Check the upper-arm room before adding a jacket. A comfortable top still needs to feel comfortable once there is another layer over it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMatte Jersey: soft stretch with a smooth finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plain core Relaxed Boat Neck is made from \u003ca href=\"\/en-sg\/collections\/mela-purdie-f01-matte-jersey\"\u003eMela Purdie Matte Jersey\u003c\/a\u003e, an Australian-made, mid-weight knit in 92% viscose and 8% spandex. Both the fabric and finished garment are made in Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts soft fall and matte surface give you another option alongside a crisp cotton shirt or a lustrous woven blouse. The spandex provides stretch as you reach, sit and move. The relaxed cut allows that flexibility to be part of the wearing experience without making the top deliberately close-fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMid-weight is worth remembering when choosing for the weather. This is a useful fabric for mild days, indoor plans and layering as it cools. For a very hot afternoon outdoors, consider whether you would prefer something lighter or a shorter sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlain colours or a stripe?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack, White and French Navy form the core colour selection. Start with the trousers or jeans you already wear and choose the top that creates another outfit with them. Black over black pants lets a jacket provide the contrast; White beside denim gives you a clear, simple combination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrench Navy is worth comparing with white pants, cream jeans and other navy pieces. Similar colour names do not guarantee an identical shade across fabrics, so look at the garments together if you want a coordinated outfit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black-and-white stripe version uses Banner Stripe Jersey, also listed as 92% viscose and 8% spandex with Australian fabrication. It brings pattern into the same relaxed shape. Wear it over plain pants when you want the top to supply the interest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMela Purdie also releases fashion colours during the year, although not every style appears in every release. Check the individual product pages for the colours and sizes currently available rather than treating a previous shade as an ongoing option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSoft jersey above a crisper pant\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/en-sg\/collections\/mela-purdie-nomad-pant\"\u003eNomad Pant\u003c\/a\u003e gives you a useful starting point, as shown with the core top. The jersey falls softly over the waist while the pant provides a more defined line underneath. Add sandals for a relaxed day or loafers when you want a different finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can also compare the top with your straight or wide-leg pants. Leave it loose first and look at where the hem meets the fuller leg. A small front tuck is another possibility if you enjoy that proportion, but the relaxed waist gives you the option of wearing it out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor flowing separates, try the \u003ca href=\"\/en-sg\/collections\/mela-purdie-pace-pant\"\u003ePace Pant\u003c\/a\u003e or tapered \u003ca href=\"\/en-sg\/collections\/mela-purdie-soft-capri\"\u003eSoft Capri\u003c\/a\u003e. The textures change as well as the shape: matte jersey above fluid Maché creates a different outfit from jersey above a crisper woven pant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe same top for lunch, work and travelling\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith jeans and flat shoes, the Relaxed Boat Neck can become an everyday outfit. With better trousers and an open jacket, it can work for a day in the office. The neckline and sleeves remain visible when you take the jacket off, so the top still has a role of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor dinner, begin with the pants you already enjoy wearing out. Add the top, your intended shoes and jewellery before deciding whether the combination needs anything else. A plain jersey top can give detailed trousers or a statement jacket room to stand out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor travel, plan several combinations around the same colour. A top that works with your flight outfit, daytime pants and dinner separates helps keep the suitcase manageable. Crease resistance does not mean it will never need attention after packing; follow the garment label when caring for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKeep wearing it as the season changes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a mild day, the top can stand alone. As the temperature falls, add a cardigan, jacket or coat with enough room through the sleeves. Try the layers together so the jersey moves comfortably rather than catching underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is also a reason to think beyond one seasonal outfit when choosing a colour. Picture it with the pants you wear now and the jacket you reach for later. A familiar neckline and fabric can stay useful while the layers and footwear change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFit and care advice from Weekends\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse the size chart linked on the individual product page, and compare the fit with a top you like wearing loose. Check the body length, bust and sleeve room rather than choosing from the size number alone. A listed size range does not confirm stock in every colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe current core Matte Jersey top is machine washable. Follow the attached care label for the washing and drying method, and check before applying an iron. A stripe or seasonal fabric should be cared for according to its own label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeekends is a \u003ca href=\"\/en-sg\/collections\/mela-purdie\"\u003eMela Purdie stockist\u003c\/a\u003e in Mount Lawley, Perth, with delivery across Australia and New Zealand.
