Flattering, feminine, and endlessly versatile — the Cap Placket Tee is your new everyday essential. Crafted from buttery-soft Lenzing™ Modal, this elevated basic drapes beautifully and feels luxuriously soft against the skin.

The thoughtful cap sleeve is designed to flatter the upper arm, while the refined placket is enhanced by a softly structured collar detail that frames the neckline for a polished finish. Cut to a perfect bum-covering length, it offers confidence and ease of movement, whether paired with leggings, wide-leg pants, or denim.

With its gentle stretch and breathable fabric, the Cap Placket Tee transitions seamlessly from workdays to weekends, making it the piece you’ll reach for time and again.

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.

    Beautiful colour and style

    I previously bought a white one in L but decided to buy XL for this one to see the difference. I’m usually a size 14 but in the Dharma measurements my bust is in a 16. Can wear the L but it’s more clingy. XL drapes better off the bust. So if you are a full bust woman, check the bust sizing not just the Australian equivalent would be my advice. Any further tops in this style, I think I would go with XL.
