M&S Linen Rich Top Wins Fans for Flattering Fit and Soft Fabric
M&S Linen Top Wins Fans for Flattering Fit and Soft Fabric

Marks & Spencer shoppers have been raving about a new top that has just landed on the retailer's website, saying it 'doesn't show any lumps and bumps.' The peach Linen Rich Seam Detail Waisted Top costs £36 and features a stylish yet comfortable regular fit with a flattering peplum hem.

Design and Fabric

The pastel-toned top boasts short grown-on sleeves that 'drape beautifully off the shoulders,' according to M&S, while also offering coverage to the tops of the arms. The item's 55% linen material helps wearers remain comfortable during warmer weather. Available in three colours, the 'lovely and feminine' top is popular with shoppers thanks to its 'flattering' peplum design.

Colour Options

While the peach design offers a summery pop of colour, the top is also available in a more neutral white option, though it has already sold out in sizes 6-10. Those who prefer darker hues may also wish to check out the indigo design.

Sizing and Styling

Available in UK sizes 6-24, the peach top is perfect for teaming with jeans or wide-leg trousers and ballet flats now, or with sandals and a skirt come summer. Elsewhere on the high street, New Look offers a Linen Blend Peplum Top with a sleeveless design in a variety of colours for £23.99 each. For those who prefer a floatier fit, H&M provides a Linen-blend shirt for £19.99 in a range of colours including blue, white, black, and light pink.

Customer Reviews

Despite not being online in the peach colourway for long, the Linen Rich Seam Detail Waisted Top has already amassed a fan base, with a near-perfect 4.8 out of five stars on the retailer's website. One five-star reviewer said: 'Very pretty and flattering. Love the material, nice fit.' Another fashion lover raved: 'This is the most beautiful top, I wore it with my jeans last week in the lovely sunny weather and I felt great, the fabric is cool and soft against the skin. It is a good fit and doesn't show any lumps and bumps. I can't wait to wear it again, it is the sort of top that will go with anything, smart and casual so I will get my money's worth from it - highly recommended.'

However, not every top suits every fashion lover's needs. One reviewer deducted a star, saying: 'Lovely light fabric, well fitted with hidden zip, the v-neck is slightly too low for my taste.' Despite this, another customer commented: 'Bought for the summer to wear with trousers. Lovely feminine top, good quality and fit is true to size, cannot wait to wear it. Have also bought the blue and white option.'
