Where do you go for nice tee shirts, fitted but plain

Ideally a nice linen or natural material with maybe a scoop neckline

I love Uniqlo’s supima cotton t-shirts.

holidaynightmare · 03/09/2022 23:03

Seasalt everytime

Sugarsandwiches · 04/09/2022 08:36

Cos always

I'm looking for the same think OP.

I bought several long sleeve fitted cotton tops from Seasalt a few years ago and they've been great, but I've worn them to death and they are showing their age now. I've just looked and they seem to still have similar - they are called Easel tops? Was planning to buy some as replacements but interested to see what else people suggest.

Lands End
M&S
Seasalt

Scoop necks are hard to find, so more v-necks.

drspouse · 04/09/2022 08:42

I have a few with a slight gather at the neck from White Stuff.

LetterOfTheLawFella · 04/09/2022 08:51

Rapanui

Kettlewell colours do excellent plain tees, in a vast selection of colours. They wash well but don’t put them in the dryer.

FuncaMunca · 04/09/2022 08:56

Whistles often have plain scoop necked tees in cotton or linen

These look like they would fit the brief?

minipie · 04/09/2022 08:59

FatFace Ivy style (cotton)

Esprit (cotton or linen, but you have to hunt to find the fitted styles)

Whistles has some nice ones in at the moment

J Crew

Ralph Lauren have nice T shirt/tops but I'm always after a boat neck.

housemadd · 04/09/2022 09:12

My favourite are Jigsaw scoop neck tees. Beautiful fine cotton and just the right level of scoop.

WhereAreWeNow · 04/09/2022 10:20

Boden do a nice fitted scoop neck. Jigsaw double layered scoop tops are lovely (I've only got the long sleeve one).

MistressIggi · 04/09/2022 10:25

My current favourite is actually from Sainsburys - they have a slim fit t shirt which looks quite good on me

GettingStuffed · 04/09/2022 10:25

Another vote for Rapanui

PuppyMonkey · 04/09/2022 10:27

And yet another vote for Rapanui Smile

Bullshot · 04/09/2022 10:27

BAM - their stuff lasts for ever ( and you don’t need to launder as often due to them not getting smelly! )

Rapanui don't look fitted?

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/09/2022 11:33

I've rarely seen scoop neck in Cos.

Seasalt colours are generally awful imo, and their tops are quite short.

M&S poor quality. They fade and go saggy on the neck really quickly.

Jigsaw used to do nice modal/cotton ones, but they seem to have disappeared. I'm going to try the double layer ones next.

PAFMO · 04/09/2022 11:36

For everyday, M&S though they don't have as much choice in quality as previously. You used to be able to pick between a £8 basic and a £20 quality with lots in between but not anymore.
For assured quality, Cos, Joules or Arket. Usually in the sale or in the case of Arket, from Zalando.

CuriousMama · 04/09/2022 12:35

Can anyone recommend one for a long torso?

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/09/2022 12:40

Arket are great quality, but, again, usually only a high neck.

LetterOfTheLawFella · 04/09/2022 21:43

Rapanui don't look fitted?

Suppose it depends on how fitted it needs to be

jazzybelle · 04/09/2022 21:54

Boden. They have a good selection of neck shapes.
