Pictured is Ruby Rose modelling for Bonds, MTV VJ and Aussie modelSo I've always been a fan of the t-shirt... not that I don't like wearing other types of clothing because I do. However it's so hard to come across the perfect t-shirt, let alone THE perfect WHITE t-shirt.
So I'm going to roughly list and describe the criteria
No brainer is comfort level! I like it to be a t-shirt that can breathe freely and not made out of those crappy spandex stretchy fabrics cos they stick to you and show off all your jiggly bits (ew) and and not to mention someone sitting behind you may just randomly stare at your bra strap. Not only that but some people have different shapes so a stretchy fabric will fold in places that don't fit very well. I like it to be kind of loose so like cotton t-shirts, all nice and breathey breathey and hang-y hang-y.
Has to be the right length for your body shape too! Can't have it too long and wear it with jeans cos then you just look out of proportion.. but I guess it's okay if you're wearing short shorts and bling it up with a long necklace or something.
Price range duh! I don't give a damn if a t-shirt is 100 bucks, could be a rip off! Experiences? Well once upon a time someone I know got an Armani Exchange t-shirt.. (I don't think they're really known for t-shirts so that's probably the person's fault but anyway) and the stitches started coming undone after only a few wears and washes. Not sure if that was the 'design' but yeah. Same goes for being cheap.. if it's like 10 bucks for 3 tshirts or like buy 2 get the 3rd free... no point buying it if it's a crappy t-shirt and hence a waste of money. So it's a mix between the quality and the price for sure.
Have I come across the perfect white t-shirt yet? Almost but that's not a yes, so no. Comfort level is good! length not good, have to fold it up.. if i'm right it's a long t-shirt which i didn't realise when i bought it. price length good! fabric not thick enough and hence kind of see through.
Sleeve and neck design, eg scoop necks look better on one person while v-necks look better on another.. or just go better in a particular outfit combo.
Summary for criteria
- Fabric
- Fabric density
- Comfort
- Price
- Length
- Sleeve and Neck cuts
i know what you mean. I've been looking for AGES - all tha of which fits your criteria! I just recently found mine - the brand is "staple" it's white, with a v neck-ish, the material is kinda transparent becos its thin, it doesnt hug, and it was only 10 bucks.
