Investing in one of the best white t-shirts for women is a fail-safe starting point when it comes to building the basics of a timeless capsule wardrobe. While a crisp white shirt and a trusty blazer also act as stalwart wardrobe staples, there’s no harder working item than a good quality white t-shirt. The humble white tee has the ability to make seasonal pieces go the extra mile; they add a relaxed twist to tailoring, make the perfect partner to your best jeans and rule the loungewear/layering roost. That sort of versatility is rare.
Despite them being such wardrobe staples, though, finding the perfect white t-shirt isn’t always easy. An ill-fitted white tee that discolours after just two washes and loses its shape is inevitably going to land up discarded in your bottom drawer, so you need a good quality white t-shirt that’ll stand the test of time. Want the good news? That doesn’t have equate to a high-ticket price tag.
Before you start shopping for your crisp white tee, there are a few things to consider. 1) Be mindful of fabric; look for organic cotton where possible. The Albaray cotton t-shirt and the COS regular-fit t-shirt both tick that box. Similarly, you could opt for something with modal (this boat neck design from Boden fits the bill) which is made from spinning beech tree cellulose and is generally considered more eco-friendly than cotton.
