White bamboo T-shirt for women
The white T-shirt is the light base note of the wardrobe: under the blazer, with jeans, over the skirt. This version is knitted in bamboo viscose with organic cotton, and that gives a white top that feels cool and smooth against the skin and drapes nicely instead of standing out stiffly. The style is for women and comes in sizes S to XXL.
Why bamboo in a white T-shirt
The fabric is made of 70 % bamboo viscose, 25 % organic cotton and 5 % elastane. The bamboo viscose is a smooth, round fibre that makes the fabric softer than cotton alone and lets it drape closer to the body without clinging. At the same time the fibre carries moisture away from the skin and out into the fabric, where it evaporates, so the top feels fresh even on a hot day. The cotton gives it body, and the elastane holds the shape. The whole fibre story is under facts about bamboo.
The right white for layering
A white T-shirt is used half the time as a layer: under an open shirt, a cardigan or a blazer. Here it matters that the fabric is thin enough not to bulk, smooth enough to lie flat under other layers and comfortable enough to sit directly on the skin all day. That is exactly the role the bamboo viscose plays best, and that is why this top often ends up as the one that goes into the laundry basket most times a week.
The summer top in its own right
On its own the white T-shirt works as the lightest choice of the summer. The fabric breathes, leads moisture away and feels cool when the temperature rises, and the white reflects the sun instead of drawing it in. With shorts, jeans or a skirt it is the whole outfit, not just the bottom of it.
Soft enough for the whole day
A white T-shirt sits directly on the skin more than any other garment, and that is why the softness is not luxury, it is function. The smooth fibres of the bamboo viscose do not scratch, edges and seams are flat, and the fabric keeps its soft surface wash after wash instead of going stiff and rough, as pure cotton can. It is noticeable especially late in the day, where a harsh top starts to annoy, while this one is simply still there.
Keep it white
Whites should be washed with whites, at 30 to 40 degrees and without fabric softener, which over time turns the fabric grey and dull. Let the top air dry instead of tumble drying it, and both the white colour and the fit will last markedly longer. The rest of the advice you will find under washing and care.
Size, and if it does not fit
The style has a regular fit, and the elastane gives the fabric freedom of movement, so your usual size is the right choice. Between two sizes you choose according to the look: smaller for close fitting, larger for a loose drape. If it still does not fit, it can be exchanged according to the rules under returns.
More in the same quality
The white style has black and grey sisters, so that the basic colours can stand together, and all the short sleeved ones are found under T-shirts for women. If the layer underneath is to be just as soft, you will find bamboo briefs and bras under underwear for women.
