Reviews Summary
Shoppers keep coming back for this top in multiple colours because it hits that rare sweet spot: comfortable like a tee, but “dressier than a tee-shirt” when you need to look sharp. The fabric gets called out again and again as “beautiful,” “exceptional,” and “oh so soft,” with many noting it washes well and is easy to care for. Fit feedback is consistently positive—flattering without clinging, with thoughtful details like a neckline that works especially well under a jacket and enough room through the midsection to feel confident all day.

Beautiful soft fabric which is very flattering and feels fabulous! Would like one in each colour. ❤️
Love this top! It's cool, comfortable, easy to wear and care for too!
My new favourite tee. My first purchase from Dharmabums and very impressed. After a lot of recent disappointments with online purchasing from other brands with styles and poor fit and I am so impressed. Love the feel of the material and it looks smart enough for work wear.
I love the different neckline. Its very flattering. I bought the pretty blue as well. Just a nice change from a singlet or polo.
Beautiful fabrication washes well. It’s the perfect work or casual tee.
That perfect in-between black tee: not a singlet, not a standard T-shirt — just effortlessly chic.
I already had this top in Navy. Cobalt is a stunning colour. Fabrication spot on - as I’ve gone to expect from dharma bums quality.
