The rib tank
The curved rib tank and the scoop-neck rib tank are the base of the uniform: close, stretchy, in black, white and ecru, and the cheapest thing the house makes. Buy two.
The shirts
The Signature cotton shirt is the poplin shirt cut roomy with a long tail; the classic tumbled shirt is the washed version; the crochet shirt is the summer piece that gets searched by name. They come in XS/S and M/L.
The blouses
The slouch blouse and the slouch-neck blouse drape at the neck; the cowl-neck blouse pools; the ribbed bow blouse ties. They are the office tops under the blazer and the evening tops on their own.
The tees and the jersey
The compact knit tee wears like a heavy jersey; the cotton-silk tee is the fine one; the boatneck and one-shoulder jersey tops and the parachute halter are the seasonal pieces.
Sizing
True to size. The tanks are meant to be close; the shirts are meant to be roomy. Letter sizes convert in the size guide: S is EU 36 and UK 8.
