Bold geometric motifs meet sculptural sleeves in a cropped top that brings character to a coordinated look or simple separates.

Discover the Aku Akwete Cropped Top from Maison Aria
Aku pairs a generously shaped cropped body with a contrasting dark stand collar and broad front panel. Long balloon sleeves gather at the wrists, while drawstring details at the hem and cuffs finish in trailing ties. The contrast trim gives the expressive pattern a clean, structured frame.

Where playful color meets timeless elegance
Pictured in teal with contrasting geometric motifs and a dark colorway with green, purple, and golden accents, Aku makes pattern the focal point. Wear it with coordinating wide-leg pants for a confident ensemble, or with plain high-waisted trousers to spotlight the top.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

Design & Silhouette
A cropped, full-bodied silhouette with dropped shoulders and voluminous long sleeves. The stand collar and vertical front panel balance the gathered shape at the hem.

Artisanal Detail
Repeating geometric motifs and linear patterning create a distinctive surface. A dark collar with a visible button detail, broad front trim, and fine drawstring ties add contrast and definition.

Fabric & Feel
The patterned fabric holds the visible volume of the sleeves and gathered body. Refer to the garment label for exact fibre composition, trim materials, and care information.

Maison Aria Essence
Aku reflects Maison Aria's expressive approach to contemporary dressing, combining bold pattern, considered proportions, and distinctive finishing details.

Styling Notes
Pair with the coordinating Aku pants for a print-led look, or balance the cropped shape with a plain high-waisted skirt. Add simple earrings and a compact bag, keeping the collar and sleeves in focus. This listing is for the top only; pants, bags, and jewelry pictured are styling pieces.

FIT & CARE

Fit: Generously shaped through the body and sleeves, with drawstring gathering at the hem and cuffs. Compare available bust and garment measurements with a top that fits you well.

Length: Cropped silhouette, shown above the waistband of the coordinating pants. Coverage varies with height, size, and styling.

Care: Follow the garment care label for cleaning and pressing instructions. Handle the drawstring ties carefully to avoid snagging.

Sizes: Refer to the available size options and measurements when selecting your fit.

They told me the item will be delivered on a date after I needed the item which made me very unhappy, but the item was delivered earlier which is a pleasant surprise. I am still rating lower for this misinformation.

I like the little options added in the outfit to help fit and support. I ordered this strapless dress in a 3XL and it had the option to add invisible straps for support. That was nice. I love the packaging. I keep coming back for them, lol.

One thing about this brand is their communication. They will follow-up all the time, you won't even have to message them for anything as they are always communicating. And since I sent them my measurement on my first order in 2021, all the items I buy fit perfectly. They have won me over as a loyal customer.

Let's get one thing straight, for a curvy 2XL in-between sizes, I am not easy to please. But your clothes actually impressed me. I can see there's a lot of detail and attention in the whole process from order to delivery. Please keep it up.

I have updated my review multiple times and still have only good things to say. People like me should not be allowed to review this brand again because we are now like a family after over 5 years of patronage, and it seems like they always go above and beyond to impress me 😄

It started as one dress for my child and now its almost a closet full of beautiful items I love. I almost didn't want to leave a review because I wanted to keep this brand to myself, but that would be bad and I need to be a good role model for my daughter. So here it goes: I love your products, they have never failed me once and I am now a loyal customer of yours.

First time trying this brand, I love everything on the website, and that is saying a lot. I ordered a size up thinking international brands sometimes run smaller, it was not necessary. The sizing fit. Another thing to note is that they asked me if I want it tailored to my size when I emailed them about my size concern. That really pleased me to know they could offer such a service. I am very happy with the purchase.

What I really like about the joggers is how it fits and the mesh lining is surprisingly very comfortable too. I like the decorative designs, but I wish you could add plain ones I can pull off as work clothes.

The seller Maison Aria had reached out to me to confirm receipt of my purchase. I had replied that I did not receive it yet and it should arrive in a couple days or so. It actually arrived not to long after I was reached out to. I am extremely thrilled with my purchase, the quality and it compliments my skin tone beautifully. I even received a complimentary gift that fits perfectly I was pleasantly surprised at this unexpected kind gesture. I am so happy and will definitely be ordering again! Thank you so much! Best wishes for continued success! Tania

The shirt is very good, fits beautifully. The design on it is great quality too. The shipping time was not too great though, took about 6 days, maybe I just wanted the shirt urgently. Overall, no regrets here, love the brand and will keep coming back to it

Will this Piece Fit me?

A great piece earns its place in your wardrobe.

The difference often comes down to fit—not only how a piece sits on your body, but how naturally it works with your style and the life you live. At Maison Aria, we take fit seriously because we believe every piece should pull its weight in your wardrobe: worn, enjoyed, and returned to often.

Take the Maison Aria Fit Quiz to discover your Style DNA and see whether this piece feels like a natural addition to your wardrobe.
