T-Shirts

The Neckline of T-Shirts

The t-shirt neckline is the hole in the t-shirt through which the head goes in order to put on the shirt.  Mens t shirts and those for ladies come in U-neck, crew neck and V-neck.  A U-neck gets its name from the shape of the neckline which looks a U.  The crew neck is round and is a close fit to the wearer’s neck.  The V-neck looks like the letter V and there are two varieties – one is modest and the other is less conservative.  In the 1980s, the off the shoulder necklines became famous and mostly ladies wear them.  This style is frequently worn still in 2011 and is so large that a shoulder is showing when the shirt is being worn.

The Length and Fit of T-Shirts

The cut of a t-shirt and the way it falls on the body when it is being worn is called the fit.  Conventionally t shirts are worn close to the figure of the wearer or fitted, although not tight on the skin. Usually females wear t-shirts that are fitted and the mens t shirts range in fit from baggy or very loose to vaguely fitted and worn as an undershirt beneath shirts that are button-down.  T shirts that are cropped tend to be worn by females although some men wear them as well.  These t-shirts have been cut off at the end to stop at the navel of the wearer.  Though generally loose fitting, cropped t shirts can be fitted as well.   The t-shirt length is generally at the hip of the wearer however they can be as short as to the navel or as long as to the knees.
