Zendaya has already embraced the trend: the t-shirts conquering the summer | Meital Sharabi
The hottest item of the season is none other than the wide and loose t-shirt that is way too big for you. The secret lies in combining it with items that define the body, vintage prints, and accessories that balance the volume.
This summer, the clothing that covers the most is exactly what everyone wants. After several seasons of short and tight crop tops, the large and slightly loose t-shirt has become the most relevant item in the summer wardrobe.
Actress Zendaya, for example, appeared on the red carpet in a huge vintage Spider-Man t-shirt, worn like a dress, combined with classic white heels, which made the look both relaxed and calculated.
Jennifer Lawrence, known for her quiet everyday style, was caught on the street in a wide t-shirt with a print and Bermuda shorts; and Alexa Chung often combines a huge t-shirt over a silk midi skirt. On the runways, one can also see this direction strengthening: Balenciaga, for example, presented huge t-shirts over tight skirts.
This contrast is the whole point: a wide t-shirt on top, and something with defined boundaries on the bottom. A midi skirt under a huge t-shirt is a combination that is currently conquering, and ripped jeans or denim shorts also work excellently with a wide t-shirt in a game of contrasts that elevates the look.
Those who want a sporty look can combine a wide t-shirt with wide sweatpants and sneakers, and those interested in an elegant version wear heels or thin sandals that balance the volume on top. A thin belt around the waist, over the t-shirt, which gives a hint of the body shape without giving up the volume, also creates an elegant look.
Choosing the t-shirt itself is no less important than the combination; this is not the time for a solid-colored t-shirt. Vintage t-shirts with prints, band or sports team t-shirts, and even an old merch t-shirt that has been sitting in the closet for years, all gain prominence. Of course, thick and high-quality cotton, through which one cannot see how hot we are, is the criterion for a worthy t-shirt.
And finally, the rule to remember: the larger the t-shirt, the more proportional and balanced the rest of the look should be, meaning a skirt or pants that define the body line, so that the impression of pajamas is not created. Give the t-shirt room to breathe, but keep the shape.
