Finding the perfect white shirt
To find the perfect white shirt, look first at the fabric. The ideal is a fine cotton poplin and soft to the touch, but at the same time not transparent. If you opt for a fitted shirt, the fabric should have a little elastic fiber in its composition to give greater freedom of movement. As for the shape, there are two basic lines, the straight masculine style and the more feminine fitted:
- The male shirt. To make it feel good, choose it slightly large, that in your widest part, be it chest, belly or hip, you have a couple of fingers left on each side. If the sleeves are a bit long or the collar is a bit too large it doesn't matter, this style of shirt works best with the top buttons undone to show skin and look more stylized, and with the cuffs rolled up. Choose it if you are straight, have a tummy or are very thin.
- The fitted shirt. When going to it, pay particular attention to the fact that it does not squeeze you anywhere. It has to outline your silhouette but without marking it, since that would make you look fatter. Before the, button all the buttons up to the chest and make sure that the flap does not open, even when you move your arms. Then look at your back to check that the bra straps or the under-arm strap are not marked.
What do I wear it with?
The white shirt combines with almost everything, although we recommend that you forget about it for the typical formal look with a suit jacket and that you combine it with other more current clothes.
- With a black skirt . Get yourself a loose white shirt and wear it rolled up to give it that carefree French air we love so much. As for the skirt, opt for a flared cut and in leather or with some distinctive detail. You will succeed.
- With wide pants. In the purest style of Annie Hall, the character played by Diane Keaton in the 70s. The shirt for this style is fluid and feminine, perfect to contrast with the masculinity of wide leg pants.
- With sweatshirt. Give a sporty and sophisticated look to your look by wearing the white shirt with joggers and a sweatshirt. Let the blouse stick out between the pants and the sweater.
And at night?
Pair it with a tuxedo jacket or trousers for a very Saint Laurent chic masculine look. Or with a full skirt, for a more glamorous lady look. It is also perfect to wear with luxurious fabrics, such as brocades or sequins, as it lightens the formality of these pieces and gives them a modern touch.
