The white tank top. Such a simple item but oh, can it do so, so much. Kind of like the even more casual cousin of the white tee, this item is loved by celebrities such as Kendall Jenner, Zoe Kravitz and Bella Hadid. So why do these fashion enthusiasts love the white tank so much? Well, for one it’s easy to find. It’s also easy to style, easy to find and won’t cost you too much dough either. So how do cool girls such as Dua Lipa and Kaia Gerber like to wear this underrated top? We’re going to show you three ways you can style this simple item that models and celebrities alike can’t seem to get enough of.
The Ribbed Racerback
For starters, let’s take this Ribbed Racerback Tank from Treasure & Bond. This ribbed tank is an upgraded take on the Hanes White Tank with its thicker material and contoured fit. For an easy going night out look we would pair this tank with a pair of denim jeans, like these Khaite High Waist Crop Jeans, and add a statement belt like this Salvatore Ferragamo Double Gancio Reversible Leather Belt. To finish off this trendy outfit we would add an oversize blazer such as this Thatcher Blazer from Lafayette 148 New York. The blazer and belt add some understated flair to this otherwise casual tank-and-denim outfit and the result is a chic, off-duty model look.
The Comfy Crop
We love the way that cool girls Hailey Baldwin and Kaia Gerber have been seen styling the simple white tank top. These fashionistas are often seen about town grabbing coffee and meeting up with friends sporting this classic white basic, but essential item. Try remixing the classic tank with a cropped one instead. This Naked Wardrobe x Lori Harvey Side Knot Rib Crop Tank is a fun take on the normally plain tank top. Pair it with a pair of biker shorts like these Beyond Yoga Twinkle High Waisted Biker Shorts and these Nike React Escape Running Shoes and you have a comfortable, errand running, and paparazzi worthy outfit.
The Structured Situation
Let’s take it one step further. Just like the classic white button up and the classic white t-shirt, there are so many variations on just one item. Which is great because then there’s something for everyone- and we mean everyone. Perhaps you just can’t get past the whole “wife-beater” look. Which to be fair, we absolutely hate (and don’t understand) where that term came from and we honestly don’t want to know. Maybe you can’t get on board with the fact that 12-year old boys wear these tanks and you yourself are a put-together, sophisticated woman after all. Perhaps this Vero Moda Sleeveless Top is more your style. This chic, molded shoulder top is a contemporary take on the white tank complete with a high cut neckline. Pair this top with a fun skirt like this YSL Polka Dot Print Faille Skirt and you have a fun but sophisticated look and no one knows you’re wearing that kind of white tank. So what will it be? Casual, cropped or contemporary? How do you wear your white tank? Let us know in the comments! Until next time.
