A silk button-down is like the secret sauce of a minimalist, elevated wardrobe. And when it's oversized? Chef’s kiss. From beachside layering to date night glam, here's how we love to wear this timeless staple—without compromising comfort or sustainability.

1. French Tuck It with Denim

Let it loosely drape over your jeans (we love a high-rise vintage pair) and tuck just the front for a polished-but-effortless look. Add a bold earring and a structured bag to complete the outfit. If you are tired of a French tuck, do a full tuck (all the way around) like Katherine Hepburn.

2. As a Beach Cover-Up

Silk is breathable and luxe—ideal for layering over your swimsuit. Leave it unbuttoned, throw on a wide-brim hat, and grab a tote. Done. It dries to fast too!

3. Monochrome Moment

Go all black or all white for a clean, sophisticated vibe. Pair your oversized silk top with flowy trousers or a slip skirt in the same tone. Add a red lip for contrast.

4. Belted as a Dress

If it’s long enough, cinch it at the waist with a bold belt. Wear bike shorts underneath just in case and layer with statement earrings and heels for a night-out look.

5. Layered Over a Dress or Outfit

Treat it like a lightweight jacket. Toss it over a fitted dress or jumpsuit for a soft layer with movement and flow. Or over a pair of jeans, flowy pants (for a coastal moment) or even shorts and a fitted top. You can knot it at the waist or let it hang loose.

Why We Love It

At Le Prix, we’re always about pieces that do more than one thing. An oversized silk button-down is elevated and easy—exactly what a sustainable wardrobe needs. Choose secondhand when you can (we have gorgeous ones in stock), and care for silk with eco-friendly detergent like Tru Earth.
