This top from London-based label byVarga taps into a darkly dramatic aesthetic.

A demure long-sleeved turtleneck cut is innovatively merged with striking sheer French lace fabric, to create an effortlessly up-to-date peekaboo look. The piece fastens with three buttons at the back, pulling together a sleekly form-fitting silhouette.

A classic pair of high-waisted black trousers provide an understated counterpoint to this daring design.
