A complex classic is the translation for the Elite silk Lycra and satin top. This elegant, sports-luxe-like creation is structured to a form fitted silhouette consisting of the architecturally inspired features and lines of the 30s – 40s buildings namely the Suspan, Havant, Hamshire, England.

Its multi-panelling of vertical lines at the front is offset by horizontal shadows created through deep pleats of the sheer silk lycra at centre front. The opaque segments are enhanced by a sheer, yoke and sleeve frame, as well as the mid-side panels, reflecting a sense of glassy elements within the historic building.

An intricately detailed biased double tie feature in silk and cotton stripes, adorn the centre of sleeves and left to hang loosely midway providing options for a deep bow tie or micro bow with exaggerated hanging ties for a more dramatic look. Alternatively, ties can wrap around sleeve arm to shorten at desired length.


Additional features include a lower centre back split which then connects to a centre zip for closure. Complimentary to the ‘blocky’ nature of the design, a cutout curve in the sheer back yoke is softly tailored and finished with covered buttons and loop closures near the back neck region. The completed crowning consists of a standaway collar stand displaying a sense of a charismatic aura.

Taxes and Duties

International shipments can be subject to customs and import duties once they reach their destination. For other international locations, Decimal does not take responsibility for paying any charges. We recommend contacting your local customs office for more information. 

The underlying ethos of Decimal is to create exclusive designs to be treasured and keep. We execute this foundation through providing high quality finished, aesthetically pleasing designs with multiple wearing options. 
For this reason, we encourage our customers to apply good care to the laundering and handling of their garments to maintain its longevity. 
This will contribute to our vision of reducing the amount of environmental impact created from our wardrobes. 
The majority of our designs will be created from natural fibres such as silks, cottons, linens and wool. We will also look to utilise fabrics made from fibres which adopts a closed-loop circular process such as tencel/lyocell , cuprammonium, modal and tencel-bamboo. 
Occasionally, we will introduce quality fabrications of a man-made derivative usually for its functional appeal or aesthetic purpose. 
Although most of our designs carry the ‘dry-clean only’ care guide, as this is generally the best option to maintain the integrity of the garment, most styles can be gently hand washed inside out with a mild, non abrasive detergent such as silk ivory or wool-wash. 
For fabrics that are made up of two or more different fibres (such as our Silk and Cotton plain navy smooth Dupion from the current debut collection), the care guide should follow the more delicate of the blended fibres. 
Additionally, a tip for all coloured garments with natural fibres, are to soak the items in a tub with 2 - 5 tablespoon of salt (depending on thickness and volume) BEFORE the FIRST wash to set and retain the colour intensity of the garment. 
We have provided a general care guide below which will progressively be updated with new information as we add new fabric bases to our future collections. 
Should you have any queries or concerns, please contact us on one of our social channels 
@decimalthelabel or email us at 
for advise on care guide for specific styles. 


COTTONS & LINENS
Cottons and linens are generally very durable fibres with occasional slubs often imbedded into the fabric, namely the linens. This is a natural characteristic of these fabrications and should be considered as part of its organic appeal. 
Whilst the typical washing guide for these fibre contents are less stringent with other brands, Decimal recommends greater care due to the details that require preservation to retain integrity of the designs. 
Should you opt to hand wash or gently machine wash these garments, please ensure it is with mild detergent on a gentle cycle with warm water. Do not line dry under harsh sunny conditions, instead, select a shady or semi-shady area to dry. Do not place garments in the dryer as this will likely cause fibres to shrink and damage the proportions and texture of the design. 
Pressing of these fabrications are most effective while still subtly damp otherwise use steam to remove wrinkles with a warm to hot setting. 
Please apply more care to bases that are finer in weave such as cotton voiles or those with delicate metallic threads integrated into the fabrics ( as seen in our debut collection).
 
It is best to press these inside out first with a low to medium setting to test the outcome before increasing the heat if required. 


SILKS
Silks as a fibre are one of the strongest natural fibres available, however, in its fabric form, most are of a delicate nature. For this reason, we have opted for silks with a slight percentage of Lycra stretch, (under 10%), to allow a more durable lifespan. 
Occasionally, there will be a non-stretch option introduced, however, we will ensure other elements of durability is applied such as a twill weave as opposed to a weaker counterpart. 
Due to its delicate nature, we recommend dry cleaning silks with an eco conscious dry-cleaner using non abrasive chemicals. 
This option will tend to retain the shape, colour and texture of your garments for many years. However, hand washing silks are 100% acceptable with techniques such as gentle immersion using ivory silk or wool wash detergent in cool to warm water and remove any stubborn stains in a targeted way. 
Remove excess water with a towel rather than by wringing. 
For garments with no obvious stains, the use of steam is an effective way of removing odour. Once this is done, turn the garment inside out, and hang in a shady spot for about an hour. This will remove any bacteria accumulated from the wear. 
 
Always ensure all silk garments are well ventilated and not kept in sealed plastics as this will promote sweating and bacterial formulation over time.
