A sculptural, high-impact piece from Christian Lacroix’s Cruise 1997 collection, this vintage cropped top embodies the designer’s iconic fusion of couture structure and vibrant drama. Rendered in a fiery vermilion red-orange with subtle tonal patterning, it features a sharply contoured silhouette with princess seams, peplum-style pleats, and a wide square neckline.

Five ornate gold-tone buttons run down the center front, anchoring the look with classic Lacroix opulence. A standout separate that instantly elevates suiting, denim, or evening silhouettes.
