Tanks and Tees: A Summer Staple

As of this writing, July is almost over. In a couple of days, August will arrive. But that doesn’t mean that summer is over. Summer is still the season well into September. So what better way to enjoy the warm days than with a class tank top or tee shirt? Tees and Tanks have a long history in the fashion world. They’re a staple in any wardrobe. They can be worn casually or elegantly. These tops can be found at the playground, a gala, and everywhere. A tank or tee can be chic and cosmopolitan with the right accessories. Here is what some fashion magazines say about tanks and tees: ***REPOST**** The 2024 Way to Wear Spring's Chicest Wardrobe Essential You might already have one in your closet. Here's the chicest way to wear cute tank tops this spring. www.vogue.com The 2024 Way to Wear Spring’s Chicest Wardrobe Essential By Alexis Bennett Parker March 19, 2024 When it comes to wardrobe essentials, timeless cute tank tops are the reliable staple to stock up on for both the spring and the summer months. While the sleeveless silhouette rarely changes, from body-hugging racerbacks to baggy plunging designs, how they are worn continues to evolve. The Notable Tank Tops The Affordable Warrior: Uniqlo Airism sleeveless top, $30 The Modern Take: Mango round-neck tank, $36 The Celebrity Fave: Skims cotton ribbed tank, $36 The Timeless Pick: Banana Republic ribbed cutaway tank, $45 The Classic Savior: Michael Michael Kors ribbed tank top, $74 The Versatile Hero: ATM Anthony Thomas Melillo Boy tank, $100 The Luxury Investment: The Row Favana silk tank top, $1,010 When the sleeveless hero was first created, it was used as a functional swimming top. Then, it transitioned to an undergarment for men. Today, it’s the easiest way for both men and women to beat the heat on sunny days. But thanks to some of our favorite designers, the tank top feels more like a closet essential that should be celebrated rather than just an afterthought. Remember when Bottega Veneta sent Kate Moss down the runway in that plaid button-up shirt last spring? The quiet minimalist tank top added dimension to the casually cool look. This year, Dries Van Noten and Gucci layered them underneath longline jackets styled with cargo pants and tailored shorts. And on the streets, the tank top continues to hold its status as a styling trick in the closets of some of the most stylish stars.
