Women's T-Shirt – Retro V-Neck With Turned-Back Sleeves and Soft Knit

Women's T-Shirt – Cut the Way Tees Were Before They Got Narrow

The neckline is a V, the sleeves are short with a turned-back edge, and the body is drawn a little wider than a modern tee. The knit is soft enough to wear straight against the skin. Five colors, and it goes on over the head.

Why choose a retro V-neck T-shirt?

A tight tee reports on everything underneath it, which narrows down who is comfortable in one. Adding a little width changes that: the fabric falls over the body instead of gripping it. The V then keeps the whole thing from looking boxy.

• Neckline opens the collarbone — the V lengthens the line where a crew neck cuts it off.
• Falls over, not around — the extra width means the knit skims instead of clinging.
• Turned-back sleeve edge — a small detail that keeps the short sleeve from looking cut off.
• Comfortable on bare skin — a soft knit with no scratchy finish at the seams.
• Straight pull-on shape — no fastenings anywhere, so it goes on and stays put.

The kind of shirt that leaves the drawer without any deliberation.

Turn it inside out for the wash and keep the program cool, and the color holds far longer. Skip the dryer; the knit comes back into shape on a hanger. Two of them in rotation means one is always ready.
