WHAT: Free People We The Free CC Tee
WHY: Are t-shirts really such an issue that we had to dedicate an entire, single article to the one we love?
For us, yes. Because the fit of most t-shirts is a, how do you say? Ah yes. Utter and total haunting pervasive daily nightmare. Let’s explore it.
1. Typically we find the arm length on a t-shirt to cut at the widest part of the upper arm. This does us no favors. Especially those of us who might have, shall we say, fleshier arms. THANKS, FASHION!
2. The torso area is so loose as to not highlight any of our curves and looks instead like a puffy yet deflated balloon.
3. The neck in typical t-shirts is often a “crew” neck which, for anyone out there who is similarly aged to the author of the very article you’re reading (cough, 44, cough), works only to exacerbate our neck rings!
4. Additionally, a crew neck works very hard to make our boobs look as stupid and mound-like as possible.
So to recap. Bifurcated arms. Balloon torso. Neck rings. Mound boobs.
Enter: the most beautiful and flattering t-shirt of all time such that when we discovered it we nearly wept openly.
Just look at this shirt:
