Purple Dove Short Sleeve Bamboo T-Shirt

Purple Dove bamboo T-shirt for women

Purple Dove is a dusty, greyish purple: a pastel with calm instead of sugar. It has the softness of lavender, but the grey undertone keeps it grown up, and the result is a colour that feels new without being daring. This version is knitted in bamboo viscose with organic cotton and comes in sizes S to XXL.

The pastel for grown-ups

Bright pastels can quickly turn sweet, but the grey undercurrent in Purple Dove pulls the colour towards the calm and the Scandinavian. It looks lovely with grey, white, denim and black, and it is an obvious partner for silver jewellery, where most warm colours call for gold. If you mostly wear cool colours, this is the softest way to add a shade of colour.

The fabric

The T-shirt is made of 70 % bamboo viscose, 25 % organic cotton and 5 % elastane. The bamboo viscose makes the fabric smooth and cool against the skin, gives it the heavy, handsome drape and moves moisture away, so the top feels fresh all day. The cotton gives structure, the elastane holds the shape. All the properties of the fibre are gathered under benefits of bamboo viscose.

Softness you can feel

A pastel T-shirt is often bought on looks, but this one is bought again on feel. The round, smooth bamboo fibres do not scratch, the fabric does not turn rough after washing, and the top feels just as soft after three months as on the first day. That makes it an obvious top for days when clothes simply have to be comfortable, without looking as if that was the plan.

At home and out in the same top

Purple Dove has the rare ability to work at both speeds. With soft trousers and wool socks it is the comfortable choice for a day at home, and with jeans and white trainers it is ready to meet the world. The colour means the top never looks like nightwear, and the fabric means it never feels like best clothes, and that combination is exactly what most weekdays call for. It is also why it often becomes the top you change into when the working day is over, without changing again if guests arrive.

Certified calm

In delicate colours in particular, what the fabric is dyed with matters. The T-shirt is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, cert. no. BJ020 142441, and the certificate covers every component, the dye included. What the label means is set out under what OEKO-TEX Standard 100 means.

Washing

Wash the top inside out at 30 degrees with similar light colours, and avoid fabric softener, which over time makes pastels look dull. Let it air dry, and it will keep both its shade and its shape.

Size, and if you change your mind

The model comes in sizes S to XXL with a regular fit; choose your usual size. If the colour is different from what the screen showed, or the size does not fit, the top can of course be exchanged, the rules are set out under returns.

Finish the look

Purple Dove works beautifully with the grey and white basic colours in the collection, and with a top or a vest in the same quality underneath the set is complete, see tops for women. The whole colour palette is under T-shirts for women.
