10 Black Tops We Love on Amazon
Bright colors are great, prints are punchy, and when it comes to mixing and matching, the more, the merrier. It’s all true, but sometimes you just want to turn off your fashion brain and get dressed. And in that case, there’s nothing easier than basic black.
The color never falls out of favor and matches pretty much everything. And because of all that versatility, the same top can read as elegant or edgy depending on what it’s worn with. It’s a good hue to go with for an investment item—you’re almost guaranteed to get more wears out of a little black dress than a little blue turquoise number—but it’s also a good pick for everyday pieces.
Enter Amazon’s The Drop, its trendiest line that’s reliably stocked with things you’ve had on your mental shopping list. From tanks with Y2K-skinny straps to elegant cutouts, these are the pieces worth considering right now.

The drawstring on this pick lets you decide how high you want the rise, allowing you to customize it for however much skin you want to show and your torso length (cue people on both ends of the 5-foot-something spectrum rejoicing).

2) Christy Cowl Neck Cami Silky Stretch Top
The Drop

A silky camisole will always pull double duty, working well as a layer or on its own. The delicately draped neckline of this find creates an elevated twist, literally, on the basic tank style.

3) Genievive Cropped Cut-Out Top
The Drop

This short top pairs well with high-waisted bottoms, and there’s something pleasingly symmetrical about the way the elbow-length sleeves line up directly with the hemline.

4) Raquel Cinched Cropped Sweater Cami
The Drop
amazon.com
Sexy and comfy don’t go together as much as they should, but this pick manages to merge both. It’s as soft and stretchy as your favorite worn-in tank, but the adjustable cord on the front lets you show off some navel.

5) @lucyswhims Fitted Cutaway Racer Tank Sweater
The Drop
amazon.com
Ah, the racerback. Cribbed from athletes who need to be able to move, it’s got a sporty-chic vibe and is universally flattering to the shoulder area.

6) Doug Cut Out Knit Top
The Drop
amazon.com
$34.90
Even a closet stocked with solid-colored long-sleeve tops likely doesn’t have one like this. An elongated cutaway at the neck is intriguing, adding a nice bit of oomph to a plain top-and-jeans moment.

7) Titus Open Front Cropped Sweater with Ring Detail
The Drop
amazon.com
$39.90
Is it a top? A cardigan? A sweater? No, no, and not really. This hard-to-define style is sleek and sexy, with a definite nod to some of the best-dressed women of the aughts.

8) Marisol Long Sleeve Ruffle Smocked Top Black
The Drop
amazon.com
$35.89
For those that can’t handle their cottagecore feeling too saccharine, this noir top has the same silhouette elements—clock the delicate peplum, puffed sleeves, and ruched bodice—without a girly color or print.

9) Gage Vegan Leather Twist Front Halter Top
The Drop
amazon.com
$67.80
Black leather always has a sexy edge to it—and black vegan leather is no different. This twisted-neck top works for evenings out or daring days and costs way less than the real thing.

10) Nicole Crew Neck Muscle Tank Top
The Drop
amazon.com
All it takes is wearing one great tank top to realize all iterations of the simple shape aren’t the same. The wide shoulder straps and substantial cotton weave of this pick will make it a closet favorite.
