So if you're looking for the perfect t-shirt I'd recommend this one

[CHOOGIRL]

here It's not cheap I know, but the fabric is so soft. It is long in the body so I can bend over in jeans without revealing ar** and it skims the waist so no muffin top issues.

[Ceebee74]

Looks lovely but £48????

[Maveta]

those are LOVELY and i covet them.. the fabric is so soft. i do worry they´d warp after one wash and i´d freak out after spending that money

[CHOOGIRL]

No have washed it in the machine and it is still lovely. Have ordered a couple more in white and charcoal.

[brimfull]

lovely but pricey

these are my staple t-shirt,nice and long

[monkeysmama]

Ggirl I've been considering getting a few of those AA ones. Do they wash well? Thank you.

[brimfull]

yes they do but i don't tumble dry them

I have numerous colours ,they are quite big so best to read the reviews to get the size right

[Megglevache]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOh that looks really nice!

[LauraIngallsWilder]

£48 for a t shirt that looks a bit like a maternity tent

No thanks!

[LetThemEatCake]

American Vintage is fabulous, well worth the extra ££

[Meglet]

ggirl the AA t-shirt looks just like what I've been looking for.

[PestoLovelyMonster]

£48 for a t-shirt

[MarshaBrady]

I want some American Apparel tshirts too.

Dh works round there might visit for lunch soon. The people working there look great.

[LetThemEatCake]

sighs.

[Megglevache]

Choo has it kept it's shape and did it bobble? I find the pricier they are the quicker they bobble

[CHOOGIRL]

Has kept shape and not bobbled. The tshirt top is made of a really soft cotton fabric - not like normal t-shirt material so I have a feeling it will last for years.

[TheMoistWorldOfSeptimusQuench]

Nice top

"American Vintage... is quickly gathering notoriety in the UK..."

Notoriety? What? Have their designers been keying cars and upsetting the neighbours with their noisy parties?

[cookielove]

wtf no way 48 for one t shirt, that is to much for me

[monkeysmama]

Thanks gg.

[monkeysmama]

Thanks gg.

Septimus

LTEC - why the sigh? I won't balk at buying cashmere to BF in (after your cardicoat thread the other day I ordered a lovely one from Pure!), but I refuse to spend 50 quid on a t-shirt.

[CHOOGIRL]

Oh FFS - I went to Tesco Express the other day purchased a couple of bits and didn't have much change from £50. Food has all gone now - whereas the t-shirt which cost £44 with my mumsnet discount is still giving me pleasure. Has no-one heard of fashion maths???

[LetThemEatCake]

just a sigh, Alibaba, just a sigh.

Lovely to hear about the cashmere BFing cardi though, can you link?

[LauraIngallsWilder]

Choogirl of course
A tenner for a t shirt and you have £40 change for food
£48 for a t shirt and you only have £2 left for food

As I said before £48 for a tshirt is ridiculous however long it lasts (especially if it billows like a maternity shirt)
I have loads of clothes I have owned and loved for years and rarely spend more than £20 on any one item
Never more than £15 on a t shirt

[Alibabaandthe40nappies]

this in the mink

It is delicious, hangs very nicely without the belt too.

[OurLadyOfPerpetualSupper]

The AV one is the better of the two imo - the AA one looks positively manly with that butch v and baggy shape.

The AV one flares out too much for me but I suppose it would suit someone with boobs and skinny hips.
