7 Keyhole Cut-Out Pieces

Keyhole cut-outs add such a fun detail to fashion pieces. They lend whimsical shapes and outlines to casual wear, or a sexy peek on more dressy items. Either way, keyhole cut-out pieces always add a touch of unique lines and visual aesthetic to your getup. We found five beautiful keyhole cut-out pieces you can wear right now to take advantage of this holy (ahem, holey) trend. —Jennifer Cox

The Banana Republic Boatneck Cut-out Top ($70) can be dressed up or down with its cute chest detail. This textured ribbed-knit top is soft, stretchy, and comfy, with a semi-fitted style that isn’t too tight or too loose. Plus, it’s sustainable: it’s made from a breathable fiber derived from certified renewable wood sources as well as produced using methods that reduce water impact and emissions by up to 50% compared to traditional viscose.

This adorable dress from Reitman’s ($20) is perfect for spring and summer. This bodycon dress has a sophisticated mock neck and cut-out above the chest and back, and it’s made with a jersey sweater fabric that has a super soft feel. Another adorable detail is the button loop closure at the back of the neck.

Dynamite’s Asymmetrical Long Sleeve Key Hole Top ($35) has all the flair you’d want in a top. Available in three colours, we adore the cool asymmetrical button-down closure and cuff slits, both of which really differentiate this piece from others. The mesh makes it the type of shirt you elevate with a cute tank, sexy bra, or chunky jewelley.

The Cut-out Crop Top from H&M Canada ($15) is a flirty short, fitted top that is styled with a lovely cut-out section at the back. It’s made of jersey cotton for ultimate comfort, with long, close-fitting sleeves to give it a more slimming look.

Everyone loves a quintessential little black dress, and Eclipse has it: the Heavy Rib Tank Dress with Open Back ($30). The knit fabric and scoop neck create pretty, flattering lines, while the peekaboo keyhole cut-out on the back is the perfect “extra” to really personalize this piece.

Even runway designers are embracing this trend. From Stella McCartney, this viscose cut-out tank top ($1,070) is made from cruelty-free, non-animal materials, while her cut-out knit bodysuit () screams summer. Ditto for this bodysuit by Celine.
