It's timeless, classic, and the must-have wardrobe staple of the season. L'OFFICIEL curated a list of classic white t-shirts at every price point to step up your summer style.

It's no secret&mdash;basics are back. A counterpart to the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/men/androgynous-glamour-style-mens-spring-2022-fashion-trend">androgynous</a> yet chic <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/best-white-tank-tops-summer-style-basics">white tank</a>, the white t-shirt is having a styling moment. First introduced into womenswear as underwear in the late twenties by <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/gabrielle-chanel-history">Chanel</a>, only in the late '80s and '90s did this hidden staple come out from under, morphing from a masculine to a unisex garment. And with the undeniable <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/vintage-outfits-thrift-stores-nyc-model-shopping-guide-bella-hadid">vintage</a> revival trend, this comes as no surprise. From <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/young-kate-moss-90s-style-runway">Kate Moss</a> to <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/young-brooke-shields-80s-photos-calvin-klein">Brooke Shields</a>, it seems every vintage off-duty supermodel moment featured this wardrobe hero.
Yet with simplicity comes complexity. While the wardrobe hero is as necessary as having that one good pair of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/guide-style-skinny-jeans-2022">jeans</a>&mdash;between fit, silhouette, and materials&mdash;all white t-shirts are not created equal. Here, L'OFFICIEL breaks down the best white t-shirts for <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/how-celebrities-are-spending-their-summer">summertime</a> and beyond.

A reimagined classic&mdash;the New York-based ready-to-wear label introduces sensuality and ease with a relaxed Portuguese cotton blend designed to impress. Oversized yet feminine, the silhouette lends itself to versatility and practicality.
