Johanna Ortiz Rituals stretch cotton-blend crop top

Reflecting the designer’s festive spirit, the Rituals crop top is a lesson in refined detailing. The design’s clean, cropped silhouette is artfully contrasted by intricate, geometric-embroidered straps that tie at the shoulders, making it a versatile foundation piece for both daytime and evening ensembles.

The art of the detail

This piece presents a study in refined composition. The black top is sculpted from a cotton-blend fabric that offers structure and comfort, creating a flattering cropped shape. Its defining feature is the set of wide, self-tie shoulder straps, detailed with monochrome geometric embroidery. The silhouette is kept clean with a square neckline and a simple hook fastening at the back, which allows for a secure and smooth fit. The back reveals a dramatic, elongated panel that adds movement, completing this carefully considered design.

How to wear

Style this top with high-waisted white linen trousers and simple leather slides for a sophisticated approach to resort dressing. For an evening occasion, pair it with a floor-sweeping black silk skirt and heeled sandals, adding a single statement earring to draw attention to the shoulder details. This piece serves as a foundational element for warm-weather events, from seaside dinners to city garden parties. Its structured body and decorative elements make it a compelling choice that requires minimal accessorizing.
