<-h2->Basic tops the wardrobe leans on<-h2-> Under a blazer or over a straight jean, basic tops turn up everywhere. Our edit covers tees, camis, long sleeves and fine knits in black, white, grey and soft neutrals, cut close or relaxed. These get worn more than anything else, so fabric and fit carry all the weight: jersey with some substance, a neckline that holds its shape, a hem that stays put when tucked. A white tee with a straight jean, a slim leather belt and gold hoops is a whole Saturday sorted. A black cami under a wool-look blazer with a tailored trouser and a small shoulder bag takes dinner or a night out without trying. A fine long sleeve layers under a knitted vest for colder weeks, and the same three pieces rotate through a holiday suitcase with almost nothing else. Choosing the better fabric is the difference between a top that lasts and one that does not. Tees, camis, long sleeves and fine knits sit together in one place.
