Tank Tops

Your hardest working wardrobe item doesn’t get nearly enough respect. A well-constructed tank top gets worn more frequently than almost any other article of clothing you own. It’s layered under everything, worn alone on warm weekends, tucked into pants to elevate an outfit that technically falls under the heading of “not yoga” clothing. And yet, the average woman has a drawer full of tank tops that they feel just okay about. Maybe they’re too skimpy, or too short, the straps always falling down, or the neckline just isn’t quite right. We’ve all been there too. We set out to change that. Tank tops should be treated like less of an accessory and more like a legitimate clothing category. Here at RCFW, we understand that the difference between a tank top you reach for day after day and one that wilts forgotten at the bottom of your drawer is really about a few key details. Weighty enough fabric that feels luxurious. A length that doesn’t ride up every time you sit down. Strap width that’s not too thin so that it won’t suddenly become visible when you throw a blazer over it. Small? Sure. But also the entire point. We’ve curated a variety that will get you through every aspect of real life as it actually is today. Runs tucked into boyfriend jeans when working from home but you still have to sit on camera? We have the fitted rib tank for that. Something slightly looser and longer that won’t bunch up when you tuck it into an open button down? Yes, please. Something you can wear on its own to drinks after work if it’s fancy enough and you bring the right earrings? You betcha. And of course we’ve included tanks that look especially nice under suit jackets too, because that combination is massively underrated and nearly always looks more put together than it should. Construction is something we’ve been picky about as well, because let’s face it. Tank tops fail you in the stitching department more times than not. After awhile, they start to unravel, literately. Every tank featured in this collection will keep its color, last through countless washes without losing its shape, and most importantly, will not become unintentionally transparent when you stand next to a bright light. Speaking from experience, we promise you care about that way more than you let on. A good tank top isn’t a basic. It’s the foundation every other piece in your wardrobe is built upon. We realized that, and curated this edit around it.
