Seasalt Cornwall has reduced a £70 linen top that's perfect for the summer months to under £28 in its clearance sale. Fashion fans are racing to get their hands on one of the tops, which have been inspired by Cornish artists, and come in a fit that effortlessly glides over any lumps and bumps, and can be worn casually or dressed up for the evening.
Seasalt Cornwall's Shallow Layers Linen Tunic in red normally costs £69.95. However, it's seen a whopping reduction down to £27.95 in the brand's huge online sale, and is flying out of stock. The same top is also available in Sea Teal green, but this is still full price.
If you're looking for a more budget-friendly green tunic elsewhere, Roman's Khaki Abstract Print Button Detail V-Neck Top has been rated five stars, and costs £32. Or the Evans V-Neck 3/4 Sleeve Tunic is £36 at Next.

Seasalt Cornwall's Shallow Layers Linen Tunic is crafted in a simple smock style in pure linen, which has been inspired by the studiowear of Cornish artists. The pull-on piece has deep side seam splits and bracelet length sleeves, making it perfect to layer over narrow trousers with a classic Sailor Shirt for a peep of stripe at the cuffs and notch neckline.
It's also ideal holiday wear for evenings, as it can be easily dressed up. Its breathable linen has been garment-dyed for rich colour that will develop more character with every year of wear.
One impressed Seasalt Cornwall shopper gave the Shallow Layers Linen Tunic a five-star rating, writing: "Lovely crisp linen and a good fit. This is my second Seasalt tunic. Great to wear over jeans, shorts or skirts. Love this sea green colour. Can be worn casually in the daytime and spruced up With chunky jewellery for an evening event."

A second said: "I had the red and it's a fabulous soft tomato red, long fit and lovely easy to wear fabric, just the thing for days out it looks good from when you put it on to when you take it off."
A third wrote: "Really nice Tunic made of good quality Linen. Super colour and a comfortable style that will be cool and easy to wear come the summer. I like the slightly longer sleeve length which can be rolled up if necessary, much more versatile than the usual bracelet length. And it has pockets. More colours please."
"Perfect, exactly the style I love and with pockets !! Gorgeous colours! I have 3," said somebody else.

Giving it three stars, one person said: "It’s nice and I am keeping it but the collar doesn’t quite sit right so probably (hopefully) just requires ironing."

Another commented: "Purchased this in the sale and I am pleased with such a bargain. It fits well but for me I find the material rather heavy. I have noticed this with a few of sea salt tops. However. If you like heavier tops this is the one for you."
But another five-star reviewer added: "Love the tunics. Have one in every colour! Great fit and very comfortable, easy to wear. Good quality linen."
