Ashley Graham shows us exactly how to wear the plain white tee

If you own a plain white tee, you're more fashionable than you think

There's nothing boring about the plain white tee. A white t-shirt may seem like the most basic of basic items, but there's a whole lot more you can do with it. Own a plain white t-shirt, a pair of jeans and a leather jacket, and you might as well pick up your style award now.

Let's have a brief journey through the white t-shirt hall of fame, and you'll see what I mean. James Dean, in Rebel Without a Cause. Mary Kate Olsen at the Weeds premiere. Eh, the cast of Beverly Hills 90210.

It's actually a really cool piece of clothing, but you have to wear it, not let it wear you. By that I mean, don't let it be basic. You have to do something with it. Layer necklaces over it. Tie it, 1999 style á la Ashley Graham, pictured yesterday.

Let's forget about associating the plain white tee as the item of clothing your dad puts underneath his shirt, and stock the hell up! You can buy one for, like, €2 in Penneys.

Or, Alexander Wang does one for €105. Get yours from Brown Thomas today!
