Ribbed Long Sleeve Top

Every wardrobe needs a long sleeve top that does not ask for attention, and this is that top. Basic Bae keeps the shape simple and lets the rib do the styling, running vertical lines through the body and sleeves for a finish that looks better than plain jersey ever will. Pull it on, get on with your day, forget you are wearing it.

The fabric is 96% polyester and 4% elastane in an opaque, slightly stretchy rib that holds close to the body without gripping. Bust runs from 33.5 in at size S up to 48.4 in at size 3XL, top length sits between 21.3 in and 23.2 in for a shorter cut that tucks easily, and sleeve length runs 24 in to 26 in. Our regular size model is 5 feet 6 inches with a 34 in bust and wears a size S, and our curve model is 5 feet 9 inches with a 48 in bust and wears a size 1X. Sizes run S through 3XL.

The shorter length is deliberate and it makes tucking effortless, so pair it with high waist jeans or a midi skirt and be done. It layers beautifully under a blazer, a cardigan or a quilted jacket because the rib stays flat rather than bunching. Khaki, Sky Blue, Rust, Light Green and Hot Pink means you can buy the neutral and the colour and know both will get worn.
