Josephine

Named after the history-making Josephine Baker for her grace, steadfast beliefs and sense of life, this off-shoulder top is for every woman who has places to go and something to say. It balances bare shoulders with a clean front and draped ruffles along the back — a surprise detailing for anyone who happens to catch the rear-view upon first approach. The shoulders give and hold with comfortable ease thanks to hidden elastic; a side zipper allows for easy dressing. Pair this top with jeans, summer trousers or high waist shorts to juxtapose the sweetness of it all. This shirt is made of crisp Sea Island Cotton and comes in white and black. Accounting for just .0004% of the cotton supply worldwide, Sea Island Cotton is the rarest cotton in the world. The fibers in Sea Island Cotton are extra-long and considered superior to all other cotton types due to their uniformity and consistency. This allows Sea Island Cotton to be unbelievably soft — a quality that endures despite repeated washings. Rather than degrade over time, the hand feel of Sea Island Cotton improves from wash to wash and the color maintains its vibrancy. This top was produced in New York at what is considered to be the premier shirt making factory in Manhattan. The men and women who handle each item are industry veterans, having honed their fine Italian craftsmanship under the dedicated eye of the Garment District’s legacy. These men, women and the factory they work for are just as dedicated to product excellence as we are.

By eliminating third party retailers, AMMARA is able to charge less than a third of the margin you pay at a department store. This allows us to provide you with the highest caliber product at the best possible price. We work with the most luxurious fabrics like Sea Island Cotton — about four times as expensive as regular cotton poplin, and Four Ply Crepe — a type of silk most often used in couture garments. Our factories are the best in their class, run by professionals with over forty years of experience working with designer garments. AMMARA shirts are designer quality shirts at much more accessible price points.
