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.

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

It's no wonder Comedian and TV star Julia Morris is a Motto super fan, with the Lust Cami holding 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.

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.”

Motto is not only known for its clever pieces like the Lust Cami and Harlow Dress that can be worn several different ways. The brand is also loved thanks to its staple pieces like the Bias Cut Cami that customers can't stop raving about.

The cami features a figure-skimming (and flattering) bias cut, a soft v-neckline, and adjustable straps for the perfect fit. It can also be worn solo or layered, making it an incredibly versatile piece to add to your wardrobe rotation.

Glowing reviews of the Bias Cut Cami (which comes in three different colours) read, "A great fit and such a vibrant colour, It will go with so much in my wardrobe. Beautiful quality, I love it!"

Another fan raved, "Love it, so gorgeous. It's dressy and can be casual as well, a great fit, beautiful quality, so happy with this Cami" while someone else enthused, "I love this top. I bought the navy, and loved it so much I then bought the rust. Fits well, and I love that you don't have to wear a strapless bra underneath, a normal bra sits nicely under the cami straps."
