Same fabric, less money: Loft Everyday V-Neck Tee for $9.56.

All Cotton, Ruffles Included

A smocked peplum top that keeps the detailing without cutting the fabric with plastic.

Smocking and ruffles are usually where labels reach for stretch synthetics, so we were glad to see Loft's Smocked Ruffle Peplum Top come in at 100 percent cotton, nothing else. That earns it an A. Cotton breathes, softens with every wash, and on a top with this much shape it means the fabric will keep feeling like fabric rather than warming up like a plastic bag. At 24.84 dollars it is a fair price for an all-cotton piece with real detail, and the part most brands skimp on, the actual cloth, is the part Loft got right here.

Good to know

  • Machine washable, but wash cold and tumble dry low, since all-cotton can shrink with heat.
  • Smocked panels are usually knit to stretch a little, so a 100 percent cotton smock may relax over the day and not bounce back like an elastane blend would.
  • Under twenty-five dollars for pure cotton with ruffles and smocking is honest value, not a splurge.

Why it earns an A

  • 100% natural fiber (100% cotton) with no synthetics, elastane, or regenerated cellulose.
