The piece

How to choose and wear a tank top

A sleeveless top for heat and for layering. A fine ribbed tank looks clean under an open shirt or cardigan.

How to choose

  • Ribbed cotton or modal that doesn't lose its shape.
  • Thick straps look more polished than spaghetti straps for daytime.
  • White, black and grey.

Common mistakes

  • Visible bra straps if the outfit is meant to look polished.
  • Wearing it alone to an office.
  • Thin, see-through fabric.

Care: Wash cold, dry flat.

In a capsule: A summer layering piece; keeps a capsule light in hot months.

Avoid

What not to wear with grey tank top

Skip the khaki trench coat. A trench coat is dressier than a tank top, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: grey and khaki are both neutral but similar in depth, so the outfit reads soft.
