PREEN BY THORNTON BREGAZZI CATRINE GINGHAM TOP

Preen by Thornton Bregazzi masterfully blends graphic appeal with soft romanticism in the Catrine top. Its defining feature is a bold, checked pattern overlaid with a delicate floral jacquard, offering a modern reinterpretation of a classic motif. This piece adds visual interest to any contemporary wardrobe.

THE ART OF THE DETAIL

The Catrine top is defined by its confident red and black checked pattern, creating a striking visual statement. Cut for a relaxed fit, the silhouette features a simple round neckline and voluminous puffed sleeves that gather softly at the cuffs. The lightweight fabric drapes effortlessly, providing both structure and movement. This design balances a bold print with a refined shape, making it a versatile and expressive piece that showcases the brand's distinctive approach to modern tailoring and dynamic textiles.

HOW TO WEAR

Style the Catrine top with sharp, black tailored trousers and heeled pumps for a polished ensemble suitable for creative workplaces or important luncheons. The top’s structured shoulders and bold pattern lend a sense of authority to the look. For a more relaxed yet equally considered approach, pair it with high-waisted dark denim and sleek ankle boots. This combination is ideal for weekend gallery visits or city explorations, allowing the top to serve as the focal point of a sophisticated, off-duty outfit.

ABOUT PREEN BY THORNTON BREGAZZI

Founded in 1996 by Justin Thornton and Thea Bregazzi, Preen by Thornton Bregazzi is celebrated for its deconstructed take on Victorian aesthetics, infused with a punk sensibility. The brand’s signature is this duality—mixing hard and soft, masculine and feminine. The Catrine top perfectly embodies this ethos, juxtaposing a graphic checked pattern with a subtle floral jacquard. Each collection showcases a mastery of drapery and cut, resulting in pieces that are both directional and timelessly wearable.
