In the world of fashion, certain pieces stand out from the rest due to their timeless elegance, versatility, and unbelievable comfort to tie it all together. Elegant silk tops are one of these coveted items, regarded as a timeless statement piece that offers a luxurious yet practical addition to any wardrobe.
To prove just how revered a silk top is for any wardrobe, we’ve taken a deep dive into their unparalleled beauty, styling tips, care instructions, and how the Tara Sartoria selection of elegant silk tops will take you to the next level of style, comfort, and luxury.
Whether you’re a fashion aficionado or simply looking for a sophisticated staple, we’ve got you covered.
Why are silk tops such an elegant wardrobe staple?
Silk has long been revered for its beautiful texture and elegant sheen. Unlike synthetic fabrics, silk has a graceful way of draping over the body, providing unparalleled comfort paired with a luxurious look and feel.
Whether you’re dressing up for a formal event, or just enjoying a casual outing, silk tops can add a touch of opulence to any outfit. They’re versatile, also coming in a variety of styles, and one of the best parts is that silk is temp-regulated.
Meaning when the seasons change or you’ve got an event that goes from sticky sun to chilly moon? You’ll have a staple that’ll keep you comfortable through it all.
The most elegant silk tops from Tara Sartoria
At Tara Sartoria, we have a wide variety of elegant silk tops for both men and women. From our classic button down, long sleeve styles, to our silk blouses for women, there’s no shortage of selection in our range.
“This is a really nice and luxurious feeling shirt. It looks great with jeans, skirts, leggings, you name it!”
But why is it that our silk tops are so revered by our customers? It all comes down to our high-quality, handmade 100% Mulberry silk.
We buy silk directly from artisans in the oldest silk villages in Vietnam where silk has been produced since the 9th century. We use 27 Momme silk of the top quality, which is over 40% more silk than the 19 Momme silk often used for mass-produced silk garments. Our hand loomed artisan silk is a precious material to us.
So whether you want to upgrade your professional wardrobe, elevate your everyday, or just treat yourself to unmatched comfort and luxury: our elegant silk tops and blouses are the perfect choice.
Here’s some of our favorite picks:
Women’s Button Down Silk Blouse:
If it’s your professional wardrobe you want to refresh, this elegant silk blouse from Tara Sartoria is the choice for you. Made from our natural mulberry silk, these silk blouses are soft, lightweight and have a beautiful sheen that exudes elegance and sophistication.
But they’re also versatile and easy to pair with any outfit. Be it skirts, pants, jeans, or a perfect “desk to dinner” piece. With a classic loose fit, no chest gap thanks to additional buttons that prevent gaping, and the most elegant mother of pearl buttons, you’ll have no trouble mastering luxury in this style.
“Gorgeous silk fabric, French seams, mother-of-pearl buttons, and a complimentary silk scrunchie. This is a luxurious garment that people will notice. The material feels fantastic against my skin and will certainly keep me warm and looking elegant on cold New England winter days. The cut is just a bit boxy for my taste; I prefer a more tailored silhouette.”
Women’s Silk Camisole
The Tara Sartoria luxury artisan silk camisole is a must-have addition to any wardrobe. Made from our natural mulberry silk, it’s both comfortable and stylish, perfect for day-to-night wear.
They’re cut on the bias and feature a flattering v-neckline and adjustable straps for a customizable fit. They drape beautifully, skimming your curves without clinging, and the lightweight design makes it an ideal layering piece. Additionally, this style offers incredible comfort and softness, making it a great choice for both day wear AND sleep wear too!
“This is seriously such a nice, quality silk tank top! I wear this as often as possible. It's definitely genuine silk, and not flimsy or see-through at all. This is so versatile for my wardrobe - I can dress it up, wear it as a base layer, wear it to the market, or simply to bed. The design and cut is classic, including French seams! The straps are adjustable (and stay where they're adjusted to) and do not get all jumbled up and twisted around like inferior silk tops I've had before. The straps also lay perfectly flat. You can really tell that these are made with love and careful attention.”

Caring for your silk tops
Maintaining the pristine condition of your elegant silk top is absolutely essential to prolonging their lifestyle, preserving their luxurious appearance, and ensuring you get the most value for your purchase.
And, sure, for most silk tops you’re going to need to hand wash or take them in for professional dry cleaning. But with Tara Sartoria? Stressing over garment care is a thing of the past.
It’s a myth that silk requires dry cleaning. In fact, it’s only low quality silk that requires this, as lower quality silk will shrink or fade when washed in water. But silk has been around for thousands of years – much longer than dry cleaning has.
Due to Tara Sartoria silk being of the highest grade, produced in the traditional method, you can rest assured that every silk purchase is machine washable. We do recommend popping it into a delicate cycle with a garment bag for protection – but we include these in every purchase.
So all you have to worry about is styling your favorite top, popping it back in the garment bag, and ta-da everything is good as new!
It ensures that you get the absolute most from your artisan silk experience, every time.
If you’re looking for an elegant silk top to enhance your wardrobe, make a statement no matter what season you’re in, or just uplevel your luxury: the selection from Tara Sartoria is for you. With various designs for both men and women and a dedication to immaculate craftsmanship, you’ll have no trouble finding a fit you’ll love, that will last you for years to come.
