Striped Shirts and Breton Knits: Statement Stripes

Striped Shirts and Breton Knits: Statement Stripes

Wide, bold and slightly nautical

Awning widths on poplin shirting, breton knits and jersey tees. The trick is scale: go bigger than a pinstripe, keep the palette to two colours.

Best statement stripes are all about scale, with broad bands on poplin shirts, Breton knits, and easy jersey pieces. J.Crew’s edit includes tie-neck and button-up shirting, a boyfriend tee, a striped halter dress, and a mariner cotton polo that works especially well with solid separates.
