27 Best T
By Jake Smith and Georgia Trodd
They may be humble wardrobe essentials, but the best T-shirts for women certainly don't take a backseat in the styling department. Whether you need a breezy crop top for wearing with wide-leg trousers on holiday, a mid-weight tee for pairing with jeans and a blazer, or a baggy shirt for pairing with your comfiest joggers and white trainers, T-shirts will vibe with practically any outfit and occasion.
The only issue? Most of us don't have unlimited space (or unlimited funds) for all the T-shirts we want. There are near-endless options for necklines, materials, and fit, and every brand claims to make the perfect silhouette, but you need to make your coin count, and that's where we come in. We have waded through thousands of tees across the internet to help you find the perfect one.
After scouring reviews at pretty much every retailer you can imagine, we've settled on 27 of the absolute best T-shirts for women that are actually worth adding to your everyday-wear lineup. From classic crew necks to baggy, comfort-forward options and non see-through white T-shirts, your next favourite design is waiting for you somewhere in this list.
Regular-Fit Heavyweight T-Shirt, £25, COS
If you're seeking a T-shirt that's genuinely not see-through (no matter what bra you wear with it), then COS' heavyweight range is the silhouette for you. These T-shirts are slightly cropped, but long enough to still loosely tuck into trousers or jeans - AKA the dream - and come in more than 12 colours.
Orange Relaxed T-Shirt, £85, GANNI
GANNI is renowned for its logo-adorned T-shirts, funky dresses and must-have accessories, and this top encapsulates their ‘cool girl’ vibe entirely.
Ribbed Long Sleeve Top, WAS £38 NOW £28.50, Boden
Ah, to be a French girl. While the specifics of your nationality are hard to change, you can at least dress the part with a Boden striped tee. Although the brand is technically based in London, it has that carefree look down pat—and when paired with pleated trousers, it's the first step toward making your Francophile dreams a reality.

Everlane The Organic Cotton Box-Cut Tee, £29, Everlane
It's hard to get bored with Everlane's staples, and this boxy 100% organic cotton T-shirt is proof. Beyond the usual white, black, and gray, more offbeat colors like rose and pepper ensure that you’ll never run out of ways to wear the silhouette.
Cotton Jersey Super Cropped T-Shirt, £42, SKIMS
Made for warmer weather, SKIMS' fitted cropped T-shirt is oh-so stretchy and soft, you won't even feel like you're wearing anything. No wonder Kim Kardashian herself can be spotted wearing them so regularly. The best part? It goes beyond an XXL.
100% Supima Cotton Crew Neck T-Shirt, £14.90, Uniqlo
Made from 100% supima cotton, this T-shirt has over 80 five-star reviews. One buyer said: "Soft material, good quality cotton. Perfect to wear under shirts/sweaters." What more could you want?

Relaxed Stripe T-Shirt, £19, & Other Stories
Nautical is in, you heard it from us. If you're seeking a stripey T-shirt to layer with blazers or leather jackets, then to wear alone come the warmer months of summer, then this relaxed fit design from & Other Stories is it. And if stripes aren't your vibe, then look to the five other colourways.
x @IScreamColour x Terry O'Neill Elton John Lili Tee, £110, Anine Bing
In collaboration with graphic artist @IScreamColour and photographer Terry O'Neill, this limited edition version of Anine Bing's iconic Lili Tee features a digitally printed and illustrative image of Elton John. The ultimate band tee.

Pima Cotton Jersey Top, £19.99, H&M
Long-sleeve T-shirts are a must as much as short-sleeve T-shirts are, especially when they come in a variety of colours to suit an array of events. Layer them beneath scratchy knitwear to create a barrier, on their own when its warm enough to forgo outerwear but too cool to go sleeveless. The versatility is endless.

ASOS DESIGN Oversized T-Shirt, £14, ASOS
Crew neck? Check. Dropped shoulders? Yep. Lived-in, vintage-inspired wash? Certainly. This T-shirt offers an edgier take on an iconic silhouette and we're obsessed. At £14 you really can't complain.

Amazon Essentials Classic-Fit T-Shirt Two-Pack, from £6.66, Amazon
It'd be wrong of us not to lead with Amazon's budget-friendly take on the basic crew-neck T-shirt, which has more than 40,000 reviews (most of which are five-star reviews) to back up its popularity. "Best. Decision. Ever!" one shopper says of this two-pack. "The material is thin but not see-through, stretchy, soft, and everything you want in a T-shirt. The length is perfect." Sold.

Topshop Longline Everyday Tee, £10, ASOS
We feel its very important to have a variety of fits in your T-shirt collection, so as well as a loose and floaty design to tuck into your best jeans nonchalantly, you should have a tight fitting option for days when you want to show off your figure.

Hanes Perfect-T, from £13.19, Amazon
Hello, perfect white T-shirt. You probably have a few Hanes tees balled up at the back of your dresser—but none quite like this. The Perfect-T is the brand's elevated take on the everyday tee, featuring slightly thicker fabric and a more tailored fit than the ones you typically find in its multipacks. "It's soft and has a good fit that is not too tight or too loose," one Amazon reviewer writes. Stick with classic white or choose one of 20 other colors.
Short-Sleeve Knitted T-Shirt, £35, COS
Made from 100% cotton but knitted for an effect that'll remind you of your favourite jumper, this T-shirt will see you from winter through 'til spring. Why else do you think it sells out so regularly?
We the Free Always Yours Tee, £32, Free People
Somewhere between a crew tee and a V-neck tee, this Free People top has just the right vintage vibes. Cap sleeves and exposed seams make it feel even more like a holy grail flea market find—and honestly, no one needs to know that you didn't. "This shirt is so flattering on," one reviewer reports. "The girls look amazing with the subtle deep V."
Swiftly Tech Short-Sleeve Shirt 2.0, £58, Lululemon
Like everything else the brand does, Lululemon's take on the workout tee is a cut above the rest. The design minimizes seams to cut down on chafing, allowing you to run or row with zero discomfort. On top of that, the sweat-wicking mesh fabric keeps your temperature level, and comes in sizes 0 through 20.

Loewe Anagram Embroidered Cotton-Jersey T-Shirt, £275, Net-A-Porter
You've likely seen the Loewe vest on every influencer and celebrity alive as of late, and we bet the T-shirt will be just as popular this spring. Set with contrasting trims, it lends a retro baseball-inspired finish.

Alexander Wang Printed Cotton-Jersey T-Shirt, £225, Net-A-Porter
For Alexander Wang, a T-shirt is much more than a basic, so it's worth having various cuts and colors in your closet. This one is made from cotton-jersey that's washed for a rugged look and is embossed with the brand's logo. Style yours with leather look leggings for a Wang-approved finish.
Petit Bateau Iconic Plain Crewneck T-Shirt, from £16.45, Amazon
A European brand catering to baby essentials, Petit Bateau also makes adult versions of its beloved shirts, which you can now find on Amazon. This fitted crew neck is iconic for a reason: It's mid-weight and fits snugly, and that's exactly why reviewers love it. "The neckline stays perfect; it doesn't sag or pull off-centre under a jacket," one reviewer says. "The material is just the right thickness—not too sheer but not too heavy. It is not boxy at all." If you want your tees on the looser side, size up and don't look back.
