Women's Tops & Tees

What are the essential tops to have for summer?

Summer provides the perfect excuse to pack away the winter coats and heavy knits and embrace a lighter perspective on dressing. Essential tops for this time include linen or cotton tees in fresh, sunnier hues. Short-sleeve tops in textured or ribbed fabrications serve as great foundations to any summer outfit, or look for pieces with artful accents such as ruffled cap sleeves or floral prints will elevate your warm weather look.

How do I take care of linen tees?

Linen is a beautiful natural fabric, and with the right approach to care and storage will last you through the seasons. Though linen might present as a delicate fabrication, it’s surprisingly durable, however it’s best practice to always check the manufacturer's tag before washing or handling. As a general rule, linen tees can be machine washed with like colours on a delicate setting or short cycle with a cold water wash and rinse (unless otherwise advised). Once washed, air-dry your linen garment on a padded hanger or place it flat on a drying rack.

What type of tees go best with jeans?

Jeans and tees are a classic sartorial pairing, and with good reason – the right tee and jean combo is the ultimate in off-duty sophistication. Be sure to select a t-shirt style that suits the silhouette of the jean you’re wearing. For example: if your jeans are low-cut, steer clear of cropped tees and instead look towards classic crew neck styles with enough material to meet (or tuck into) the waistband of your jean. White tees with blue jeans are an iconic combination, but feel free to experiment with your selects – jeans provide a great canvas for bringing colour and texture into your top.
