No matter your lifestyle, tees are the mainstay of your wardrobe. Tees bring versatility to a capsule wardrobe by acting as the building blocks for different seasons and occasions. From office to off-duty looks, a basic tee can transform any outfit. It’s all down to the cut of the sleeve, the neckline and the fit. Curating the perfect set of tees is essential for a functioning capsule wardrobe built to mix and match.
We’ve got you covered for all your t-shirt needs ranging from slim, relaxed, boyfriend and boxy fits. Our edit of tees from Lacausa, Kowtow and Worn Store each bring something new to an ensemble.
