What Are Feather & Crystal Tops—and Why Are They the #1 Trend?

Crystal mesh tops with feather embellishments aren’t just clothes—they’re a lifestyle. This trend dates back to 1930s Hollywood, the cabaret era, and flapper fashion. Now in 2024–2025, it’s back with a modern twist, embraced by fashion houses like Bottega Veneta, Prada, and Givenchy.

Feathers are everywhere—and if you want to be on trend, start with a feather corset top. It’s seductive, powerful, and unforgettable.

Why a Designer Top Matters: Materials & Details

Feathers: Ostrich, marabou, turkey—dyed to perfection, soft, airy, and luxurious.
Crystals: Swarovski, Preciosa—hand-sewn like a constellation across the fabric.
Bases: Silk, mesh, tulle, organza—sheer and structured, built to impress.

Each evening top by Semenenko is handmade, ensuring quality and originality—perfect on camera and even better in person.
