Reviews Summary

Shoppers repeatedly describe this as the “best t-shirt” they own because the modal fabric feels “divine” on skin while still having enough weight to look refined. The cut wins people over: it drapes from the shoulders, then sits “snugly on the hips/waist” so it reads flattering and put-together rather than baggy or clingy. Many end up buying multiple colours and reaching for it for everything from work under a blazer to classes, errands, and travel thanks to its easy care and no-fuss versatility.

What Customers Love Most

  • Buttery-soft modal/micromodal fabric that feels “luscious” and “divine”
  • Flattering drape that “falls beautifully” and doesn’t look clingy
  • Tapered/snug hem that sits neatly on the hips/waist (covers tummy, doesn’t ride up)
  • Versatile styling—easy to dress up or down (jeans, work pants, skirts, matching sets)
  • Easy-care practicality: “washes well” and “no ironing/doesn’t crease” for travel

Customers Say These Are Perfect For

  • Office wear under a blazer or with work pants
  • Yoga/Pilates and workout classes (including teaching classes)
  • Travel and plane days (Europe trips, holidays, packing light)
  • People who want a tee that’s relaxed and breathable but still looks “elegant” and refined
  • Hot-weather days when you want airflow without overheating

Customer Feedback on Quality

  • “Washes well” and holds shape (described as having a ‘nice weight’ and not getting pulled out of shape)
  • Travel durability and practicality: “no ironing/doesn’t crease” and “easy wash and dry”
  • Not see-through/thicker-than-expected fabric (especially in lighter colours like white)

Customer Fit Feedback

Most customers report: true to size (with a generous/roomy fit)

Most say the tee is true to size, but many also call it a “roomy” or “generous” cut; several customers intentionally size up for an oversized/draped look, while a smaller group say they could have sized down because it felt a bit boxy/loose. The tapered hem/band is frequently mentioned as sitting neatly on the hips/waist and helping it feel flattering (covers ‘mum tum’ and doesn’t cling). A few fit-specific notes recur: the higher neckline feels more modest for classes/teaching; sleeves/arm openings are generally praised for coverage under jackets, though one reviewer wished the arm holes were smaller; length feedback varies by body type (praised by tall shoppers, but one large-bust/short-torso shopper wished it was longer).

What Customers Say

  • "“Fits beautifully & drapes in all the right places! So much better than wearing a regular T’shirt.”"
  • "“The fabric is smooth and soft… it also has a nice weight to it... not flimsy or easily pulled out of shape.”"
  • "“Awesome for versatility and great for travel as it doesn’t wrinkle.”"

Frequently Asked Questions

Real answers based on customer reviews

Material & Quality

What’s the fabric like—does it feel soft and luxe or more like a basic tee?

Over half of reviewers specifically call out the modal/micromodal fabric as “so soft,” “luscious,” “divine,” or “buttery,” and many say it feels more elevated than a regular T-shirt. Customers also mention it has a nice weight (not flimsy) and drapes beautifully on the body. Several people bought multiple colours after trying their first one because of the fabric feel.

Based on 70 customer reviews
Is it see-through, especially in white?

Several reviewers specifically mention it’s “not see through,” including people who were worried about that before it arrived. Customers describe the fabric as having a good weight/thickness compared with many standard tees. While not everyone comments on sheerness, the reviewers who do generally report good coverage.

Based on 5 customer reviews

Fit & Sizing

Does this tee actually look flattering, or does it cling and show everything?

Many reviewers describe the cut as flattering because it drapes from the shoulders and is more tailored at the waist/hips, rather than hanging like a boxy tee. Several people note it’s “not clingy,” “covers the tummy,” and sits neatly on the hips without flapping around. A small number mention it can feel roomy/boxy depending on size, so checking measurements (or sizing down for a neater look) can help.

Based on 38 customer reviews
Is it true to size, or should I size up/down?

A strong group of reviewers say it runs true to size and fits “spot on,” but there are also repeated comments that the fit can be generous/roomy. Some customers sized up intentionally to get an oversized/drapey look, while others felt they could have sized down (especially if petite). If you want a more relaxed fit like the model, several reviewers recommend going up a size; for a more tailored look, consider your usual size or sizing down.

Based on 22 customer reviews
Are the sleeves/armholes bra-friendly, or do they gape?

Multiple reviewers like the sleeve coverage (cap-style) and say it works well under jackets/blazers. Some specifically note the arm area is “closed enough” that they don’t need a tank underneath and bra isn’t visible. One reviewer wished the arm holes were smaller, so if you prefer very tight armholes, the fit may feel a bit open depending on body shape/size choice.

Based on 6 customer reviews
Does the length work for petite or tall bodies?

Reviews suggest the length can work for both ends, but experiences vary by proportions: some petite reviewers love that it isn’t too long and doesn’t spoil skirt lines, while some tall/busty reviewers praise the length. One very busty reviewer wished it was longer on a short torso/large bust combination, so if you carry a lot of bust volume you may find it wears shorter. Overall, the tapered hem and drape help it sit neatly even when length differs slightly by body shape.

Performance

Where does it sit on the body—does it ride up or stay on the hips?

Multiple reviewers love the tapered/snug hem that sits on the hips/waist and helps the tee stay put rather than riding up. People mention you can pull it down for more length or softly gather it at the hip for shaping. One reviewer also highlighted it “does not move up during classes,” which adds to the stay-put feedback.

Based on 18 customer reviews
Is it good for exercise classes like yoga, Pilates, Zumba, or dancing?

Multiple customers mention wearing it for yoga, Pilates, workouts, and dance classes, praising the stretch, breathability, and comfort. Reviewers also like that it allows movement easily and stays in place during classes. A few people intentionally sized up for extra airflow during high-sweat activities to avoid overheating.

Based on 11 customer reviews
Is it a good travel tee—will it pack well and work for plane trips?

Travel use is a recurring theme: reviewers mention wearing it on planes, taking it to Europe/Bali, and relying on it as a travel staple. Customers like that it’s comfortable for long wear, easy to dress up/down, and generally doesn’t crease/doesn’t need ironing. Several people build matching sets with the brand’s pants/skirts for a chic travel wardrobe.

Based on 12 customer reviews

Style & Versatility

Can I wear this for work, or is it only casual/activewear?

A large number of reviewers wear it to the office and describe it as a “dressy tee” that looks polished under a blazer or with work pants. Others wear it casually with jeans/shorts, and several mention it transitions easily to evening with jewellery and a jacket. The overall theme is versatility across work, weekend, and going out.

Based on 25 customer reviews

Comfort

How does it go in hot weather—will it feel too heavy or make me overheat?

Several reviewers describe the tee as light, airy, cool on skin, and comfortable even on hot days (including a reviewer in Central QLD summers). Some specifically like the loose fit for airflow so they don’t overheat. Others also say it layers well for travel and cooler moments, suggesting it works across temperatures.

Based on 10 customer reviews
Is the neckline high, and is it modest enough (or too close to the neck)?

Several reviewers like the higher neckline for a more modest, polished look (including for teaching classes), and a few mention the neckline as flattering. One reviewer notes that if you dislike fabric near your neck, you may prefer a V-neck version instead. A small number also mentioned the neckline looked slightly different from photos, so minor variation may occur.

Based on 6 customer reviews

Care & Maintenance

Does it wash well, and do I need to iron it?

Many reviewers say it “washes well,” “wash and wear,” and doesn’t need ironing, which is a big reason they use it for travel. A few also mention it keeps its shape after washing and doesn’t pull out easily. Overall, customers repeatedly call it easy-care compared with other tees.

Based on 14 customer reviews

Value

Is it worth the price compared to a regular tee?

Several reviewers explicitly say it feels more refined and elevated than a standard T-shirt because of the luxe fabric, weight, and drape. Some mention it’s “pricey for a tee” but still praise the quality, durability/shape retention, and how often they reach for it (many buy multiples). The repeat-purchase pattern suggests many customers feel the cost is justified by wear frequency and versatility.

    As an older person, I actually thought the sleeves were a bit longer. I do have a summer cardi I can put over, but of course that makes it hotter. Just above the elbow sleeve would have been perfect.
