Maximalist and minimalist wardrobe alike, a crop top is a great staple clothing piece to have. Sometimes, a crop top is all it takes to dress up a casual outfit. It’s feminine, chic and goes with various silhouettes and occasions. Since having garnered popularity in the 90s, crop tops have continued to stay popular in-demand even today. If you like crop tops and are looking for inspiration, here are 6 ways to wear a crop top for various occasions.

Name an instance where a pair of denims hasn’t come to your rescue. It makes the whole concept of ‘throwing on the first thing’ approach adequately put-together. Therefore, the first level to acing how to wear a crop top is pairing it with jeans. Recreate breakout star, Naila Grrewal’s casual outfit with the Striped Multi-Color Crop Top from Madame, a Gen-Z affordable high street fashion wear brand vouched by B-town Divas, Tara Sutaria and Shanaya Kapoor. Complete the look with a pair of high-rise straight-fit jeans. We recommend Off Duty India’s Not Your Daddy’s Straight Leg Jeans in mid blue. To ride the comfort quotient home, slip into a pair of sneakers.

Whether it’s date night or simply a desire to look like a modern Elle Woods from Legally Blonde (2001), there’s no wrong occasion to go all out pink. We love the femme silhouette donned by Bollywood newcomer, Pashmina Roshan with a pencil slit skirt and full-sleeved crop top. The Ribbed Hot Pink Crop Top by Camla Barcelona is the ideal pick from our vast collection. Made with ribbed polyester material, It’s mid-length with pink button closure. If you want to add a bit of sensuality, keep a few buttons undone from the bottom. For the bottomwear, we recommend The Clothing Factory’s O-Ring Midi Skirt with a high slit and drawstring accent. If you want a more flared fit, go for a size up. Finish the look with a pair of heels with embellished straps.
