If there’s one thing I’ve learnt from working in fashion over the last 7 years, it’s that a good body of basics is everything when it comes to building a successful wardrobe. Finding said basics is, however, easier said than done, and for many fashion editors when they unearth their holy grail of jeans/sneakers/white T-shirt, it remains a steadfast staple for many years to come. I can’t say that I’ve managed to meet my sartorial life partners in many areas of my wardrobe quite yet, but the white T-shirt is one category that I have conquered.
It might come as a surprise to some to know that my perfect white T-shirt comes from none other than high street fave Arket. But, then again, since its inception it is a brand that has aced it in the high-quality basics stakes, with premium-feel fabrics at reasonable prices. The brand’s crew neck T-shirt ticks all the boxes: it’s not see-through, it has a high neckline, boxy fit and is fitted across the shoulders but flatteringly roomy around the hips.
Best of all? It comes in at only £15. Not too shabby. I wear mine with everything from tailored trousers at fashion week (see above) and midi skirts in the park, to summer shorts and layered under winter dresses. It is truly a multi-tasking hero. I’ve even converted my practical fashion-minded husband to buy the men’s version, which is just as good. Have I convinced you yet? Scroll down to see and shop Arket’s perfect white T-shirt—you won’t regret it.
