A good T-shirt is one of the most useful pieces of clothing in a woman’s wardrobe.
It can be worn with jeans for a casual weekend outfit, paired with trousers for a smart-casual appearance, layered under a jacket, styled with a skirt, or simply worn at home when comfort is the priority.
But choosing the right T-shirt isn’t always as simple as picking a color you like.
The fabric, GSM, fit, neckline, sleeve length, collar design, print, stitching and overall construction can all affect how comfortable and versatile the garment feels.
The same is true for polo shirts.
A polo can provide a slightly more structured appearance than a conventional round-neck T-shirt, making it useful when you want something casual but a little more polished.
