Even in a simple T-shirt you can look like Zuckerberg. And you can look good if you know the rules of life in a T-shirt, which were told by Angela Angel, a stylist, designer, founder of the “Underside of Fashion” project.
Choose
The T-shirts only seem the same, but in reality they differ no less than the suits. Selecting them for their intended purpose is a separate science.
Become a cowboy.A classic white T-shirt with a round neckline, what is called a crew-neck on English-language sites. Made of cotton, sometimes with a homeopathic dose of elastane. You can wear it with a checkered shirt, of which there is a clear abundance everywhere nowadays, or simply wear it with light blue jeans. Such T-shirts work well with Guess, Levis and Chevignon, and cost 2-3 thousand rubles. It’s a pity that Chevignon is no longer in Russia, or anywhere except France. Can only be purchased from Chevignon.com through an intermediary. If you want to spend more money and think that you have received better quality, then there is Diesel and True Religion for 5-6 thousand each.
Become the star of the party.Black T-shirts with bold prints and metallic paint are Givenchy and Maison Margiela; fitted T-shirts with bright prints - Marni. They cost approximately 10-15 thousand. There are also ordinary-looking T-shirts, but they cost the same as the ones mentioned above - these are Armani. To wear all this, you need not only money, but also a somewhat athletic figure (tight T-shirts perfectly emphasize fat sides).
Let Timati do it.The rapper's look is a T-shirt 2-3 sizes too large. Or the right size, but made baggy, with dropped shoulders and long sleeves. Asos and Topman have them for a thousand, as well as Yeezy or Local Authority for 10 thousand. A baggy T-shirt can hide your unathletic figure. But if you have sloping shoulders and skinny arms, the sight will be pitiful.
Play sports.Not too tight and not too loose, made from pure cotton or a blend of fabric, usually with viscose or moisture-wicking varieties of polyester. Strictly speaking, you can run, jump or play tank towns in any T-shirt, but sports ones have stronger seams, and the fabric is more resistant to wear. Moreover, any sports brand will offer these for 500 rubles apiece.
Don't freeze.T-shirts that are specifically designed to go under a shirt are much thinner than regular ones and fit closer to the body. It is important not to get confused and not go outside in your underwear. You can distinguish them by the plastic bags in which these T-shirts are sold.
Look unusual.There are sleeveless and hooded T-shirts. There are similar ones to the armor of a crazy Jedi - this is performed by the Bulgarians from Demobaza. There are also elongated ones, almost to the knees - these hints at Islamic fashion are made by Damir Doma. From Lost and Found Rooms you can find something sad, gray, with seams facing out and sleeves that turn into gloves. A lot of this stuff has been collected on Antonioli.eu. But to wear something like this in our courageous country requires special courage.
Wear
Even if you choose the right and high-quality T-shirt, you can easily ruin everything by combining it with other clothes. Or not to spoil it.
Don't wear a T-shirt under a thin shirt.Even a plain T-shirt looks comical when it shines through the thin fabric, and with a print it’s as if you were urgently evacuating and put on whatever you had at hand.
Wear a crew-neck T-shirt under your shirt.V-shaped - under denim, leather jacket or blazer. The rule is not strict, but that’s the way it is.
Jacket for T-shirt - only cotton.Or fitted from fine wool. A thick T-shirt with a hood can be worn under a regular jacket, but only if you want to be shocking.
T-shirts and jeans - any to any.Same with chinos. Unless the colors of the bottom and top should match: the shades will still be different, and this is unaesthetic.
Watch out for safety.Recently, British hoodies have become passionately in love with Burberry, which has puzzled the respected company a lot. If you go to Manchester or Leeds, it is better not to wear a T-shirt from this company. Just as you shouldn’t wear ironic Vivienne Westwood T-shirts in Chelyabinsk. And one more thing: it’s always useful to know what’s written on your T-shirt, even if it’s hieroglyphs.
Wash
Rule 1.
A T-shirt that has stretched out from being washed doesn’t look nearly as stylish as a T-shirt that was originally made oversized. And to prevent this from happening, you need to be interested in the composition. Pure cotton stretches very strongly, which is why elastane or viscose is added to T-shirts.
Rule 2.The T-shirt should be washed at a temperature of up to 40 C°, turned inside out, on a gentle cycle and with detergent for colored fabrics (unless the T-shirt is pure white). Some designer T-shirts with intricate prints and details need to be washed by hand. Read the label that is sewn on the inside.
Rule 3.It is better to dry the T-shirt on a horizontal wire rack so that it does not become deformed. If you throw it on a clothesline and attach it with clothespins, then everyone will know about it: it will stretch, and marks on the fabric will remain until the next wash.
Rule 4.You don’t need to iron a fitted T-shirt at all, it will smooth out on you. Sports - there is no point. But if you just like to iron T-shirts, turn them inside out to avoid the prints fading.
You may not be able to find another wardrobe item that has such a huge range of models as a shirt. Enjoying wild popularity, shirts are made from various fabrics, in absolutely any style and are suitable for wearing them all year round, combining them with other various things. We decided to tell you in more detail about the most popular models of this year and about stylish combinations of a shirt with a T-shirt.
Do you wear a T-shirt under a shirt?
The fashion for combining a shirt and a T-shirt began quite a long time ago and is popular among both men and women. Since this combination is very convenient and comfortable, it is quite suitable for everyday use and will go well with other things intended for an informal setting. In addition, this look has a slightly sporty look and will go well with sports shoes, providing you with even more convenience and a feeling of comfort. But do not forget that in addition to functional features, the combination of a shirt and a T-shirt is also incredibly stylish and fashionable.
What should the T-shirt be like?
In order for a T-shirt to go well with a shirt, you need to choose the right T-shirt or, as an option, a T-shirt. It is best for the T-shirt model to be slightly tight or slightly loose-fitting, but in no case create excessive volume.
What should the shirt be like?
The shirt should be of medium length, with long sleeves, which can be rolled up if desired, adding a little hooligan touch to the image. It is worth noting that the fabric from which the shirt is made must necessarily be thicker and denser than the fabric of the T-shirt. Since the reverse combination may look slightly ridiculous and strange.
Color combination
In addition to choosing the right model, you also need to choose the right color combinations to make the look stylish. We've put together some tips for pairing different color variations of t-shirts and shirts.
Black and white
Black and white colors themselves are classic, as is their combination itself. Perhaps this is the most successful set, which is unlikely to be spoiled by anything. You can safely wear a black shirt over a white T-shirt, and vice versa - a black T-shirt under a white shirt. Both options will look incredibly stylish.
Blue and white
The combination of blue and white, like the combination of white and black, will look no less stylish and attractive. But you should be careful when choosing the bottom of the outfit, because not every item will suit in combination with blue.
Red and white
Red and white will look good if the red shirt is worn over a white T-shirt. Otherwise, the image will look awkward and even slightly inappropriate. Since a too bright red T-shirt will stand out from under a snow-white shirt. If you want to stand out, you can choose a red checked shirt, combining it with a white T-shirt. You will get a harmonious, stylish look.
Pink and light blue
This color combination is typical for the female half of the population, as they are feminine and delicate. A checkered pink shirt worn over a thin, tight-fitting light blue T-shirt will look harmonious.
In addition to the examples given, denim shirts, as well as plaid shirts of various colors, are quite popular in combination with T-shirts. Also, shirts can have sleeves of absolutely any length. The main thing is that the sleeve of the T-shirt does not stick out from under the shirt, it may not look very neat.
How to wear?
Using these kinds of things and combinations, you create a sporty style to some extent, so it is important to choose the right combinations. Let's look at the most successful and stylish images for girls and guys.
To the girl
Girls can safely wear shirts in combination with T-shirts, complementing the look with jeans of various models, since this is exactly the part of the wardrobe that will fit perfectly into this look. Also an excellent option can be fashionable leggings and jeggings, tightly fitting the figure, very suitable for a sporty style. In addition, this look will look quite interesting in combination with denim or leather skirts. Depending on the model of the shirt, the style of the skirt can be straight, mini-skirt, sun or half-sun.
To a man
A man's wardrobe is not as extensive as a woman's, so the choice of clothes that can be combined with a T-shirt and a shirt at the same time will not be as wide as we would like. But, nevertheless, several very good sets can be put together without much difficulty. For example, the same jeans will be a great addition to this look; depending on the color of the shirt, you can choose different colors of jeans. It has been mentioned more than once that the combination of a shirt and a T-shirt is a sporty style. Therefore, it is very acceptable to complement this attire in the form of sports knitted pants, which are sometimes also called sweatpants.
Shirt with T-shirt - fashionable combinations
Male image
The most popular combination with the described items is jeans, which, as mentioned earlier, can be of absolutely any color. For example, black jeans will look great with a white T-shirt and a light blue denim shirt layered over it. A perfect addition would be black leather boots or sneakers. Blue jeans with rips will also make a great outfit with a white T-shirt and a denim shirt in a slightly brighter tone. You can complete the look by wearing brown or sand suede boots, which are an undoubted hit of this season. A light gray T-shirt paired with a black and red plaid shirt goes very well with black jeans. This makes a classic Texas onion.
Female image
Such combinations also look great on girls. A denim shirt with a light white top paired with light distressed jeans is a pretty daring sexy look. It can be complemented with sports shoes or fashionable stiletto sandals. A classic plaid red shirt with a black T-shirt will look good with dark blue jeans and brown suede ankle boots.
A shirt over a T-shirt is a very popular casual option, equally suitable for men of any age. The fashion for this combination was introduced by fans of the boho style. The aesthetics of this style were based on borrowings from the culture of gypsies and hippies. One of the key features of the boho style in clothing is layering: things are put on one on top of the other not to keep warm, but to achieve the effect of ease, chance, eccentric eclecticism. A T-shirt is one of the simplest and most “harmless” examples of layering. This combination migrated to styles such as casual and urban.
Multi-layering has its advantages. Firstly, this style of dressing allows you to feel comfortable during weather changes. A man wearing a T-shirt with a flannel shirt will not freeze on a cool summer day. And if the sun comes out and it gets hot, you can take off your shirt. Or just unbutton it and roll up the sleeves.
Secondly, layering allows you to look impressive and bright, which is achieved by combining clothes of different colors and styles.
Shirt with T-shirt: basic rules for layering
1. From thin to thick. In terms of material thickness, each new layer should either match the previous one or increase. This means: the thicker the T-shirt, the tighter the shirt. And vice versa: if the shirt is light, then the T-shirt should be as thin as possible. 2. From smallest to largest. The bottom item should not be more spacious than the top one, otherwise the look will be too careless and even untidy. If the shirt is loose, the T-shirt can be loose. A fitted or semi-fitted T-shirt will be suitable for a fitted shirt, chosen strictly according to size. 3. Each layer is self-sufficient. Always be prepared for the fact that the top layer will have to be removed. The bottom item should be in good condition and harmoniously combined with the rest of the clothing. To avoid awkward situations, do not wear a washed, torn, wrinkled T-shirt under a half-unbuttoned shirt.
Which shirt to wear with a T-shirt?
Classic suit shirts are not suitable for this. We need something informal, in a casual style. These usually include denim, flannel, cotton shirts in a checkered pattern or with a bright print. This can also include shirts made of rough fabric and safari-style shirts (for example, with shoulder straps, with flaps on the pockets or with a special fastener for rolling up the sleeves). An informal shirt can be fastened with snaps rather than buttons. The cuffs, collar and pocket of a casual shirt are contrasting. Models decorated with inscriptions, logos, etc. are also “casual”.
