DEBORAH | Sleeveless set in seven colors

I ordered the gray to try it and the khaki a week later. I have stopped pretending I will wear anything else in August.

By the middle of summer most of us are down to about three things we actually reach for, and the rest of the closet is just taking up space. What makes the cut is never the most beautiful item. It is the one that is light enough to forget and tidy enough to open the door in. Deborah is built to be that one.

Both pieces are cut sleeveless and light, and the fabric is chosen to stay off the skin rather than settle against it, which is the difference between a set you wear at home and a set you wear out. The relaxed drape means nothing follows the body closely, and because the two halves are plain, either of them goes with what you already own.

Why women our age keep coming back to it

• Light enough for the worst of the heat. A thin, airy fabric and no sleeves, which is the combination that actually works at three in the afternoon.
• It drapes instead of following. The cut falls away from the waist and the hip, so it skims rather than outlines.
• Both halves separate cleanly. Plain enough that the top works with your own trousers and the bottom with a shirt you already have.
• Seven colors, from quiet to bright. Gray, black and khaki for the everyday, red, orange, yellow and blue for when you want something else.

How it fits

Sizes XS through 2XL, cut relaxed at each one. With no sleeves the fit is set at the shoulder and the armhole rather than the waist. Between two sizes, take the larger one: on a light fabric like this the extra room reads as drape, not as a size too big.

A few recent reviews

Cool without being flimsy. I checked it against the light before I wore it out.

The orange is a warm orange, closer to terracotta than to bright.

XS actually fits an XS. I am small and that is usually the problem.
