Basics-Maker Three Dots Creates Sculpted Tee

— September 1, 2009 — Fashion
For those of you who love the comfort of a tee but hate the un-polished slouch involved, the Sculpted Tee by Three Dots is for you.

Featuring embroidered shoulder pads, the Sculpted Tee is basically a structured t-shirt that broadens shoulders, imparting a tailored element to something typically un-tailored. The shoulder pads are molded into the tee - rather than removable - so you won’t have embarrassing slip-age as you go about your day.

“The shoulders are just bold enough to give you a tailored look instead of that football player one we all remember so well,” NYMag says.

Is anyone surprised with the creation of a structured t-shirt? With the season’s return to ‘80s-inspired looks and sharp shoulders, something like this was bound to happen.

At any rate, those having to adhere to business dress codes can rejoice; with a classic trouser and blazer, this structured t-shirt (which comes in versatile black and white) looks ready for the boardroom.

Plus, the Scuplted Tee is made of ultra-fine sheer jersey, which is so comfy you’ll probably wear it on the weekend, too.
