Write a reviewI would love to purchase this top, I've been waiting for KW to do a shorter top for my height, 5 feet 4 inches, and short waisted, however, no Autumn colours?!!? Please, please rectify this, I would purchase 2 in every colour because I really need this basic in my wardrobe.

Good morning, thank you for your review of the Sadie Shell Top. We will pass on your request for autumn colours to our product team for future collections. Kind regards
Possibly my favourite KW top, after the reversible ones from a year or so ago. SO flattering, no gaping armholes, a great length and nice fabric with a bit of substance. I'm hoping it washes and wears well. I bought the cream and teal colours and the cream is absolutely gorgeous and warm. I actually came to look for another one as I'm very prone to accidents (!) but they are sold out in my size already! For reference, I'm a busty 12 and chose the M, the L was a bit big around the armholes. Please, please do this top in lots of other colours - it's just perfect!
I was so pleased with my Bryony top I decided to try this in the same colour. I ordered in two sizes as it is described as 'regular' fit whereas the Bryony is described as 'relaxed' fit but I found the same size M to be perfect. I am very short waisted so this length is much neater for me and is perfect under my Rachels.
I love this top. It's the perfect weight which makes it a bit smarter - almost like the ponte top from last year, but not as heavy, and similar to the Camilla of previous years but a much better weight and a more flattering shape. It goes in slightly at the waist which makes it sit beautifully. I love the fact that it is quite short, so that it doesn't need to be tucked in and still looks smart. I did try both the XS and S as I tend to be between the two sizes, and both were fine, but in the end I went for the S which is just slightly less tight across the bust, without losing its flattering shape. I'd buy this in lots more colours if available, as I think it will be a very useful top for layering, but smart enough to wear on its own. A hit!
This is an absolutely fabulous top, it is a gorgeous weight the armholes fit perfectly I love the neckline and the length is great on my short body. it reminds me of the Camilla from quite a few years back which I also loved but ithis s a nicer fabric and a bit smarter.
Perfect shape. Perfect fit. Perfect neckline. Perfect fabric. More Winter colours, please!
I love this top! Lovely quality fabric and finish. As a petite woman it fits well, armholes not too deep and just the right length that I can wear it tucked or untucked. I've got the cream and pink colours and hoping for some more spring colours!
At last Kettlewell you’ve done it! I thought you were never going to get round to doing this style. You got close last year with the racer back style but finally a classic styled top that can stand alone or go perfectly under jackets and cardigans. I am often between sizes but sized up to make sure it hung nicely and looked elegant and it does that lovely. Delighted with the colour and style and the quality of the fabric is lovely and substantial, not at all clingy. I hope we see this style with you for a while in lots more great colours.
This is a fantastic cotton top. Great colour, fabric, fit and style. More colours please! Purchased in Atlantic blue and cream for options but I am keeping both. Fits true to size and is a great length for teaming with a skirt without tucking in.
