Founded by London-based jewellery editor Pip Durrell and her friend, Lucy Kingsman, With Nothing Underneath sells reasonably priced, classic, cotton poplin shirts for women.
The fashion world is abuzz with talk of this chic new brand. Designed in London, inspired by men’s tailoring and tweaked for the ladies, the shirts (which cost £80 and come in one style and four colours) will fill a gap in your wardrobe – whatever your age and stage.
Durrell and Kingsman say: “It is a shirt to live in, work in, dine in, sleep in – with or without thought, or anything underneath.
“The shirt combines classic English style, evoking images of toast on a Sunday morning with the newspapers mixed with the effortless day-to-day style of the French.
Inspired by icons like Carolyn Bessette, Jane Birkin and Charlotte Rampling, With Nothing Underneath is a classic wardrobe essential moving away from throw away fashion, withstanding trends and generations.”
Whether you relish retail therapy or are constantly overwhelmed by too much choice, this is the site for you. Its sheer simplicity and sharp photography – featuring hot French model Louise Follain and evoking steamy, stolen weekends in Paris – make a purchase almost compulsory.
Two little nuggets of added value that mustn’t be ignored are the brand’s gorgeous white and navy packaging and its highly stylized, beautifully curated Instagram feed (@withnothingunderneath).
