Julia Morris calls this 'amazing' four-time sellout top one of her absolute favourites

What’s the most important item in your wardrobe? There are probably some sentimental pieces – an old mini skirt or sequinned top, too full of memories to throw away. Maybe there’s an item you blew a pay cheque on once – a coat or a dress that’s a showstopper but doesn’t get as much wear as you hoped.

And then there are your wardrobe staples. They might not scream “importance” but actually, these items get worn repeatedly and, when you stumble on an everyday fashion gem, you’ll be secretly high-fiving yourself every time you slip it on.

“Right now, people are much more conscious about how they shop. They want pieces that will last, that they’ll actually wear on repeat, and that reduce the need for overconsumption,” fashion stylist Caitlin Stewart, told Yahoo Lifestyle.

And, in great news for conscious fashionistas everywhere, an Aussie brand has designed a top that ticks all these boxes and more.

The fact it’s sold out four times since it was first launched suggests we’re not alone in thinking that the piece from Motto Fashions is the best thing since stilettos got cancelled.

Four looks in one top

Called the Lust Cami, it comes in sizes 8-20 and in a range of colours and patterns including classic black and white as well as rose, blue leopard print and polka dot.

But the best thing about it is how versatile it is, providing four looks depending on how you wear it.

“This is our number one selling cami out of our entire range,” Motto Fashions designer Lauren French said on TikTok, demonstrating all the ways it can be worn.

The top is reversible offering a chic V-neck when worn one way and a high neck on the other.

It also includes removable shoulder pads meaning you can customise your silhouette depending on the look you’re going for.

“The idea of creating several different looks with one simple piece has tremendous appeal for many people,” Stewart said. “A piece like the Lust Cami ticks all the boxes. It’s timeless, adaptable, and can be styled in so many ways, which is why it’s such a great investment for anyone looking to create a sustainable, thoughtful wardrobe.”

How to wear the Lust Cami

The genius thing about a wardrobe staple like the Lust Cami is that it can be dressed up or dressed down to fit whatever occasion you need it for.

“Quite a few of my clients have this in their wardrobe and it’s proven to be a very useful wardrobe staple that works for almost everyone,” said Stewart. “It’s simple yet flattering design makes it easy to style for different occasions, whether layered under a blazer for work or dressed up with accessories for evening wear. Because it suits a variety of shapes, sizes, and ages, it’s an easy go-to for building a wardrobe that feels both functional and stylish.”

What the reviews are saying

Those lucky enough to have got their hands on one of the sellout pieces are keen to share their thoughts and there are some famous faces in the crowd too.

Comedian and TV star Julia Morris is a Motto super fan but the Lust Cami holds a special place in her heart. “I love Motto for their chic, comfortable styles, and the Lust Cami is now one of my absolute favourites!” she has previously said.

“It’s super easy to wear, really versatile,” fashion influencer Chantelle Patu told her 28k Tik Tok followers. “It’s great for sports, great for out and about with the kids, pair it with some cute shorts, you can wear it really dressed up or super casual. I love that they are so soft, we can tuck them into our waistband, they don’t give bulk, they look amazing on the body, they wash well.”

The Lust Cami is currently in stock on Motto.com.au but run, don’t walk because if history is anything to go by, it won’t be there for long.
