Women's short-sleeve T-shirts, plain or printed
The women's short sleeve t-shirt is the go-to top for sunny days: plain for any outfit, patterned for a bit of flair, in cotton or organic cotton, with a round or V-neck. Among the brands available are: Colorful Standard, JJXX, Only and Guess.
A white short sleeve t-shirt in thick cotton is the most useful in the summer.
What short-sleeved t-shirt to choose?
The women's short-sleeved t-shirt in a plain colour goes with everything; a printed or slogan t-shirt adds personality; the striped t-shirt, in sailor style, remains a classic. A round neck suits all shapes, while a V-neck elongates the torso.
What sleeve length?
The classic short sleeve stops at mid-arm; the raglan sleeve, stitched on the bias up to the neck, gives a sporty look; the turned-up sleeve shows off the arm. A slightly longer sleeve covers the upper arm for added comfort.
How to wear a short-sleeved t-shirt?
Tucked into a skirt or high-waisted shorts, it creates a simple summer outfit. With a loose women's trouser and sandals, it remains casual. A half-tuck at the front highlights the waist effortlessly.
What material for summer?
Cotton absorbs sweat and allows the skin to breathe; organically grown organic cotton has the same qualities without synthetic pesticides. Linen, even cooler, creases easily; modal is soft and flowing.
How to avoid sweat stains in summer?
Let the deodorant dry before putting on the t-shirt, and wash it promptly after a hot day. A paste of bicarbonate of soda applied before washing reduces marks.

Frequently asked questions
How to prevent a t-shirt from shrinking?
Wash it at 30°C and let it air dry. A pre-washed cotton shrinks much less in the wash.
Short-sleeved t-shirt at the office: yes or no?
In a solid colour, made of thick cotton, under a jacket or blazer, it works in most offices. Avoid loud prints.
What neck style is best for a generous bust?
A V-neck elongates the torso and balances the figure. A wide round neck also works well, more so than a very high neck.
How to roll the sleeves of a t-shirt?
Make one or two thin cuffs, lying flat. The short cuff gives a neat look and exposes the arm.
How to fold a t-shirt without creasing?
Fold it into thirds lengthwise, with the sleeves tucked back, then in half. A vertical storage in the drawer prevents creases.
