Here are our PLT top picks when it comes to the must-have summer tops for 2023.

 

First up, what is a summer top?

Most summer tops tend to be lighter weight fabric such as linen or cotton.

There are also a range of looks we tend to see each year when it comes to summer top fashion trends, this includes florals, frills, broderie and mesh.

In terms of shape, crop tops tend to become a go-to, nothing says summer cool girl (quite literally) like a crop top and denim shorts.

Although there are zero rules when it comes to summer top styling, you’ll probs want to steer away from anything too heavy and instead opt for lightweight summer knits and crochet pieces.

Here are five new in summer tops we’re loving on site right now!
