Bianca Barratt from the Evening Standard recently featured our Crew with 3/4 sleeves in her recent article on the 'best Breton stripe tops for women'.

The Breton stripe: possibly the most iconic and persistent trend ever to have graced Planet Fashion. A favourite of Coco and Audrey, having survived the atrocities of Nineties argyle and Noughties velour, its appeal endures. 

.

Despite this, however, the quest to find the perfect top is never ending. There’s hardly a brand that doesn’t have a version, but most of them are all wrong: the stripes are too thin or too thick, the cut isn’t right or the neckline is totally off. Ill-fitting options mount up in your wardrobe as you despairingly continue the search for The One. 

.

‘Who cares?!’ others will cry, ignorant of the beauty that a simple Breton top can bestow upon its wearer; but those that continue the search will know: this is a mission worth undertaking.

.

You’ll be pleased to hear that we’ve trawled the high street to find the best ones out there, so that you don’t have to.

.

It’s finally time to call off the search.

Whether it’s a scoop neck, loose fit or three-quarter-length sleeve, we all know what makes our perfect t shirt. Lavender Hill gives more options than most, so if you’ve ever had that dilemma of finding the perfect Breton but in the wrong cut, you’ll love the flexibility of its designs. Our favourite was this striped crew neck, which has a flattering scoop hem that sits comfortably on the hips.
