Every Fashion Editor Swears By This One Staple—6 Styles We've Tried and Love
Thanks to fashion designers and the effortlessly stylish French-girl aesthetic that I’ve been admiring lately, I've developed a fascination with basic tank tops. They're a timeless wardrobe staple that can last for decades. Whenever I’m uncertain about buying one, I simply take the plunge since this versatile garment has become a coveted item found on the runway at every label from Loewe to Prada. The great news is that this runway-worthy staple doesn't require breaking the bank to own. Needless to say, I'm thrilled.
After tirelessly searching for the perfect tank top, I'm happy with what I've found but I decided to call in my coworkers for backup. We've invested countless hours in scrolling, trying tank tops on, taking photos, and comparing them side by side. We've carefully narrowed down the selection to the six best options available on the internet. Without any further delay, here are the six white tank tops that fashion editors believe are essential additions to everyone's wardrobe.
"If you want a tank top with a high neck (which I think is very chic), this one gets my vote. It's slim without being super tight and is just the right amount of cropped." — Allyson Payer
I was first drawn to this tank top because of the popularity behind the black and white motif lately. I've become obsessed with it because it's so comfortable and it elevates any outfit immediately. Somehow, it became my go-to every time I get on a flight and I am always finding new ways to style it that I'm obsessed with.
"Until I found this tank top, I was close to giving up on my search for one that wouldn't stretch out, wasn't completely see-through, and fit my body in a flattering way. Tank tops are notoriously difficult to find—and trust me, I've tried. But I stumbled across this Agolde option at a preview for the brand and fell in love. I wear it constantly, loving how low it scoops in the front and the way it stays super tight even after multiple wears. I own it in black, but it also comes in other colors (see below) that I'm sure I'll add to my collection soon." — Eliza Huber
"I'm extremely picky about tank tops, but this thick ribbed-knit one fromReplica Store really wowed me. It's hard to find tanks that I can go truly braless with without feeling unsupported or exposed, this definitely checks that box. It's soft and sculpting so it gives that immediately polished look. My first instinct when I tried it on is that it's going straight into my work outfit rotation for those weekday mornings when I need something that's both easy to throw on but looks anything but." — Anna LaPlaca
"I can't tell you how many people I recommend Reformation's Dusk Knit Top to. This tank top is extremely flattering with its fitted design and wide high neckline. I always reach for it when heading to the office because it's slightly more elevated than a traditional ribbed tank top. Plus, it styles well with all my skirts, billowy pants, and jeans." — Nikki Chwatt
"Lately, I've been gravitating toward high-neck bateau-silhouette tank tops. They immediately add a polished element to any look, whether paired with linen pants, jeans, or a pencil skirt. My favorite iteration is from Dissh—specifically the Sienna tank top that is designed from a ribbed knit and comes in four neutral shades." — Kristen Nichols

Sierra Mayhew was always destined to work in fashion, but she didn't know it at first. Growing up with no choice but to wear a rotation of school uniforms and activewear, her love for fashion really blossomed when she moved away for college and was able to finally define her very own personal style. Shortly thereafter, she interned at Elle magazine and instantly knew that editorial was for her. After graduating from the University of Notre Dame, she worked for ShopBazaar, contributing regularly to Bazaar.com, and finally made her way toBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , where she is an associate editor. When she’s not working, you can catch her always trying to catch a flight, trying Wholesale Replica Bag fitness craze in New York City, or exploring luxury vintage boutiques.
