THE FINAL WORD

Knowing how to dress well is ultimately a bit like knowing how to cook well. Beyond the technical side and the taste, the same key element is found both in a good recipe and in a good outfit:  good basics .

Think of your wardrobe as a well-stocked fridge or pantry, armed with essential ingredients (salt, pepper, butter, eggs, milk, flour, etc.) for anyone who wants to concoct a delicious little dish. Your basic and timeless pieces   are the heart of your style. Once they are mastered, all you have to do is add, here and there, the trimmings that will make your look something unique that suits you.

1. A WHITE T-SHIRT

It is the most famous and the most popular of the basics. Mixed,  versatile , it can be worn in all seasons and can boast of being THE piece to turn to on mornings when you have no inspiration for dressing. A casual outfit par   excellence, it can become an ally of elegance when paired with beautiful jewelry that it enhances thanks to its minimalism.

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR WHITE T-SHIRT?

The simpler a garment, the more the devil is in the details. To start, turn to a model  in natural material  (cotton, linen, hemp), thermoregulating and more durable, as opposed to synthetic (polyester at the top of the list), much less recommendable. For the cut, opt for a model fitted at the shoulders, but with ease at the level of the chest. If you want to tuck it into a skirt or pants, make sure it’s  long enough  (but not too long, so as not to create creases).

SOME ADDITIONAL POINTS TO CHECK:

the overcasting of the t-shirt must be regular (this is the seam located at the ends of the piece, and which prevents it from fraying where the fabric has been cut)

the structure of the collar must be solid – otherwise it may deform over time

was the cut well thought out? To make sure, lay the t-shirt flat. If it is positioned askew, it is because its seams are “twisting”, and that its manufacture is not of very good quality.
