Lilac Shirts & Tops

A well-fitting white tee, a classic breton stripe, a crisp white shirt, and a black roll-neck. These four pair with virtually anything. Invest in decent fabric, a Pima cotton tee outlasts cheaper alternatives by years. Our preloved section often has quality basics that have been worn once and donated.

Wash promptly with a whites detergent and a scoop of oxygen bleach. Don't use too much detergent, residue builds up and yellows. Air dry in sunlight when possible (UV naturally whitens). Store in breathable bags, not plastic. Prevention is much easier than fixing.

This is personal, not prescriptive. V-necks elongate the neck and suit most faces. Crew necks are clean and classic. Boat necks broaden the shoulders elegantly. Our Style Finder quiz can help work out which shapes complement your proportions, think of it as a starting point rather than a rulebook.
