Find a top to go with this skirt - wedding!

I've bought this skirt for my for small informal wedding next year - however not the top as I'm a size 16 so while decently proportioned, crop tops are not for me!

Skirt looks lovely on, quite high waisted - have a gorgeous pair of Jimmy Choos to wear with it

However I am really struggling with a top! I would love something v, square or cowl necked with a 3 quarter length sleeve - in a really fine silk or cashmere knit. I always loved olivia palermos wedding outfit as an example of inspiration.

Any ideas? Wedding is in spring so probably will still be quite cool

Have you checked Sezanne for knitwear? https://www.sezane.com/en/collection/the-knitwear-gallery

The coordinating top is lovely. Could you wear it with a nude colour leotard type thing underneath, like they do on Strictly with revealing outfits?

It doesn't look right - have tried it with a few things underneath!

Have you tried looking in Etsy?

That's a possibility - I'll order and try

Where are the first and second pieces from do you know?

Yes - that's the type of thing but not crew neck - I'll keep an eye on that site though for other necklines

Lovely but a bit too chunky of a knit

A fine knit ballet wrap cardigan would be my choice. In merino or silk knit.

J Smedley has very fine knits, lovely quality , but they tend to be turtle neck or crew

Sorry forgot to add.. All the first items to pop up when I searched bridal tops on Etsy.
