Help me find this top! Black leopard print front, jersey sleeves

21 replies

Ok, a woman at work was wearing a gorgeous, fun, relaxed top, I must have it. Please help me. The back and long / 3/4 length sleeves were a black jersey like material (I think) and the front was sort of animal print, but all black, so quite subtle. I think it was leopard print, but it might have been snakeskin. The whole thing hung really well and looked good on a curvier figure.

Any ideas style & beauty friends?

No although they're both similar. It's more like the first one, but with a much subtler pattern. It was literally black on black. I think it had the same length sleeves as the second one.

Please keep looking, I never ever see long sleeves tops I like!

Not this either then, I guess?

No it was really subtle and almost had a slight leather look to it. Oh it was so nice. I should have asked her! I won't see her again!

Actually it might have had leather sleeves. Or that coated type of material. I can't quite remember. Or the front panel might have been coated.

If it helps narrow it down a bit the lady wearing it (who made it look absolutely ace) was about a size 16 I would say. So I don't think it's designer or anything like that. High street!

Mint Velvet?

Curioustiger · 08/11/2013 21:37

Posh, have looked, can't find it but it was very similar to this one:

mobile.mintvelvet.co.uk/black-&-pewter-jacquard-tee/tops/mint-v/fcp-product/3313

But with 3/4 length sleeves (at least).

Btw I have never seen that website before, lovely clothes! So thank you!

No ... But thank you. i like the skirt in your first link actually! Really the print was so subtle. Black on black.

like this?

That one is £183 though!!

Curioustiger · 08/11/2013 23:13

Like that Winnie but not that. Imagine the same top but with plain black sleeves and I think maybe a leopardy rather than tiger pattern. Oh I am driving myself and probably everyone else mad now! Thanks everyone for your patience!

tracypenisbeaker · 08/11/2013 23:25

Glad to be of assistance. It is rather nice, I can see why you wanted to hunt it down

MsWinnieBaygo · 08/11/2013 23:29

Ooh, and it's in the sale too! Nice top OP - order it quick!

peasandlove · 09/11/2013 02:42

I just jumped on the mango website to check out that top - that link takes you to the UK version where that top is on sale. So I thought I'd change to my country for shipping, well they ship to Nigeria, but not New Zealand, ok.. fair enough. So I select Australia instead, but the top is not on sale to Australia. hmmmm. Unfair Mango. Asos wont ship Mango outside the UK either. Meh
