Welcome to the shirt show where basic blouses are a bore and statement tops take centerstage. The season’s new spin on shirts– goes beyond the norm and exceeds all expectations. So what exactly makes these tops so unforgettable? It’s the details. Larger than life sleeves, asymmetrical styling, artful draping, mixed material mash-ups and volume are all the qualities to look for in a statement top.

Here’s 5 that fit the bill. Off-the-shoulder styling, lacing, bows and keyhole openings put these statement shirts in a league all their own. Get the look at Nasty Gal.
