Relaxed elegance. Made from cotton, this Breton-striped top is a universal hit for all wardrobes. The boxy fit and wide neck make this piece perfect to be lived in.
A brand whose aesthetic has been so influential that it’s hard to remember what went before. But when COS launched in 2007 against a backdrop of fast, trend-led fashion, its focus on minimal pieces at accessible prices was a breakthrough moment. With a focus on style over trend, it heralded a new era for interesting, modern, considered design and changed our wardrobes for the better, forever.
'Few things are more timeless and versatile than a classic Breton stripe. This season, follow Anouk Yve's lead and opt for printed shirts and tees – and keep a lightweight knit to hand, ready for when the sun goes down.' 18 June 2021.
Who What Wear Editor in Chief, Hannah Almassi says: “Breton stripes never go out of fashion. They are far too classic and essential an item to be relegated on a whim, but it's true that they do go through moments where popularity surges, and they become noticeably more on-trend than a season or moment before. Now is one such time”. 8 August 2021.
