Linea by Louis Dell'Olio

A kind Linea lady posted on Louis's blog yesterday that the original pebble crepe tunic suddenly has sizes available in some of the retired colors -olive and aqua - as well as current colors. I picked up olive, which I missed the first time around.  This top is such a workhorse for me!  If you're interested, grab em while they're there.

And any one else who can tell me about the olive color...it looks light...?  Doesn't he have different shades of olive?  

[Oh no, here we go again with the different shades!!  LOL]

TIA and thanks for the HU.

@MacDUFF Hopefully someone who already owns this top in olive will answer you. I won't have mine in hand for a week or more.

I really need summer clothes (not my favorite season for fashion)...I have an old LDO pebble crepe top that has been perfect in the NC heat and a workhorse (it's a black 3/4 sleeve tunic with a tie/cowl neck, if anyone remembers that far back lol)...so this top interests me.  

Althoooooo, I did order it back when it first aired, but I really hate a bateau neckline (bra straps!!!!).  But, again, I need good summer basics and am willing to just pin the top to my bra straps!!  

Thanks for the response and have a great day!

@MacDUFF Sorry that I missed your post. I have that pebble crepe top with the drawstring neckline that you mentioned, and this top in espresso, black, and two different beige/tan shades, but not in olive. If you ordered, you will see for yourself soon, but in my experience, Linea olive is deep, dark, rich and neutral, wearable in all seasons. It is pretty easy to attach bra strap retainers in the shoulder seams, if that's a problem.
