STYLING IDEAS
 

Take a hand towel, fold it crosswise, cut a hole for the head ... et voilà: the 'Hand Towel Top' is born! This simple garment is surprisingly versatile: it's just as home on the beach as it is on a night out.

On the beach, the 'Hand Towel Top' looks great with a sarong, jean shorts, or bikini (as styled by Jordy in the product photos). On a night out, style it with simple high waisted pants, jeans, or a slip skirt (as worn by Jordy with the 'Fish Smooch' Hand Towel Top here).

Care & Composition

 

100% organic cotton terry, carefully engineered to ensure lightweight comfort, breathability and ease of care. This fabric is "French Terry" -- the exterior has the terry loops like a towel, and the interior is smooth and flat. Organic terry cloth cotton uses less water than conventional cotton and no chemicals that can harm the environment and workers. Machine wash cold, and hang dry or tumble dry low. While we preshrink all of our fabric, cotton knit still has a tendency to shrink a small degree (~1-4%) on the first wash. To minimize shrinkage, avoid high heat dryers.

    Overall I am very happy

    "Overall I am very happy with the design and quality of this top- I love the towel material and the loose cut! I am normally a women’s size M (size 6) in most tops but the XS/S fit me perfectly with room to spare. I would love to see more tank tops from Tombolo in addition to their classic cabana designs!"

    "Super cute! Love that you can change the look a bit with the hidden hooks."

    — Kimberly W. (5/5)

    The mermaid top is great!

    "The mermaid top is great! Fits a little big snugger than the lobster one, due mainly to how the front is fastened I think. I'm 5'8, 140 lbs and the M/L is just the right size. Meets high waisted pants and only shows my middrift in the slit right above the button of the pants. Very cute, thicker material than I exepcted."
