16 Arlington Tops: 3 New AW26 Styles and How to Wear Them

0

16 Arlington tops are the London label’s evening separates: feather-cuffed chiffon, silk with contrast panels and hand-embroidered mesh, cut to pair with a wide trouser, a midi skirt and tailoring. Three new pieces arrive for Autumn/Winter 2026, joining the 16 Arlington feather tops and skirts and the rest of the house’s tops on Coveti.

The new trio is the 16 Arlington Olyss Top in Grey Speckle, the Olall Top in Pink and the Olarna Top in Black. Below, we look at each one, how it fits, and where it sits among the tops already in the edit.

The three new tops

Olyss Top in Grey Speckle

Lightweight printed chiffon cut with a sleek funnel neck and long sleeves, each finished in a voluminous ostrich feather cuff. The chiffon drapes fluidly across the body in a relaxed fit, and the feathers sit only at the wrist, so the top stays light. It is made in the United Kingdom in UK 6 to 16. The Olyss Top in Leopard Speckle is the same shape in a warmer print.

Olall Top in Pink

Soft bubblegum-pink silk at the front, with a contrasting black panelled back in polyester. The high neckline and long sleeves frame a relaxed fit that moves with the body. From the front it reads as a pink silk blouse; from behind, the black panels change it completely. It is made in the United Kingdom in UK 6 to 12. The Olall Top in Black and the Olall Top in Black Devore are already in the edit.

Olarna Top in Black

Sheer black mesh, hand embroidered in India with ornate patterns of sequins and fringed beaded droplets. The high neck has keyhole detailing at the back, and a loose fit lets the embroidery swing as you move. It is the statement piece of the three, made in UK 8 and 10. The Olarna Top in Red offers the same work in colour.

Clio. The Clio comes in several colours on Coveti, from the Clio Top in Black and the Clio Top in Chocolate to the Clio Top in Lilac and the Clio Top in Leopard Speckle. Our 16 Arlington Clio Top guide covers the shape in depth.

Nore, Jori and Lambro. The Nore Top in Black is a dark option for evening. The Jori Top in Black and the Jori Top in Red give a two-colour choice, and the Lambro comes in black, chocolate and white, including the Lambro Top in White.

Ossie and Auro. For metallic and two-tone looks, see the Ossie Top in Silver and the Auro Top in Black and Navy.

How we measured. Neckline, sleeves, surface, composition, country of manufacture, fit and sizes made come from each top’s product page on the 16 Arlington website, read for the Coveti catalogue on 07 November 2026. The house does not describe the Olarna’s sleeves in its copy, so that cell is left blank. We have not re-measured the tops.

How the new tops fit

The house cuts the Olyss and the Olall for a relaxed fit and the Olarna for a regular fit with a loose body. The model on each page wears a UK 8. Because all three are designed to drape, take your usual size rather than sizing up; extra room only adds volume around the waist. The Olall and Olarna run in a shorter size range than the Olyss, so check the ladder before you choose. Our 16 Arlington size guide has the full chart.

How to wear them

As a co-ord. The Olyss matches the Rocco Trouser in Grey Speckle in the same printed chiffon, and the Olall in pink matches the Rocco Trousers in Pink silk. Both sets appear in our 16 Arlington co-ords guide.

With black tailoring. The Olall over a straight black trouser lets the pink front stand out and repeats the black of the back panels. The Olarna works over a fine black camisole with the Alcea Trouser in Black Leather.

With a skirt. The Olyss tucked into a black midi skirt keeps the feathers as the only texture. For more ideas, see our guides to evening tops and feather tops.

Keep bracelets off with the Olyss so the cuffs move freely, and skip necklaces with all three, since every neckline is high.

16 Arlington tops around the world

UK. Sizes follow the UK ladder. The Olarna and Olyss suit the December party calendar; the Olall works from a dinner to a gallery opening.

US. Subtract four from the UK size: UK 6 is US 2, UK 8 is US 4 and UK 12 is US 8. Pair a top with wide trousers for holiday parties where a gown is too much.

EU. Add 28 to the UK size: UK 8 is EU 36 and UK 10 is EU 38. A silk top with tailoring suits the Paris and Milan evening register.

GCC. All three new tops have high necklines, and the Olyss and Olall have long sleeves, which suits more covered dressing. For the sheer Olarna, wear a camisole and long sleeves beneath.

How to care for embellished and feather tops

The house lists professional dry cleaning for all three. Store the Olyss and the Olarna flat, away from direct sunlight, and steam gently to protect the feathers and the embroidery. Hang the Olall on a padded hanger and steam it to refresh the silk. Fasten jewellery before you dress so clasps do not catch on the mesh.
