Gabriela Hearst Red Tops

Start with the silhouette you prefer (top, tank, cardigan, or dress), then check the fit and the shade that suits your wardrobe. Also consider the fabric feel and how easy it is to care for.

Look at the garment type, available sizes, color family (red, wine, orange), and fabric characteristics (weight, drape, knit vs. woven) to judge how it will layer and wear.

Consider the occasion and climate—office wear, evening events, or layering for cooler days—and how versatile the piece is with other items in your wardrobe.

For layering, choose a cardigan or lightweight knit in a coordinating shade; for events, opt for a dress or refined top in a richer red or wine hue. Ensure the size and length suit your height and movement.
