Fluttery sleeves are perfect for breezy spring and summer days. We love how drapey, lightweight fabric sways in the wind. Gust was designed to capture that sort of magic, with its subtle A-line shaping and ruffled sleeves, Knit in our blend of Tencel and wool, Vireo, the delicate and understated texture of this piece simply shines. Our special touch is the keyhole opening at the back neck – perfect for unlocking your new favorite tee!
