Every Editor, Influencer and Celeb Agrees—This Brand Makes the Best Shirt
September is merely weeks away and back-to-school season has us itching to give our wardrobes a smart refresh. Starting with the basics, a reliable button-down shirt in a natural fabric such as cotton or linen will set the framework for a polished look. We've been searching high and low for the perfect button-down and keep coming back to With Nothing Underneath's formidable Boyfriend shirt.
Constructed from organic fabrics including cotton and linen, the humble yet perfectly executed item is already a staple in the wardrobes of those with excellent style, including the likes of Emily Ratajkowski (who likes to wear hers underneath a smart suit-set) and a medley of influencers including Lisa Ing Marinelli and Jess Alizzi.

Easy to style with loose jeans and smart trousers alike, the button-down shirt is at its handiest during the autumn months. From September, With Nothing Underneath tends to see a 40% increase in sales of its poplin shirts, likely owing to the layering potential of the versatile piece and the back-to-school mood set by the beginning of the academic year.
Whether you prefer to style yours layered beneath a woollen jumper, or barely buttoned on top of a beautiful bra, a good-quality boyfriend-style shirt is worth investing in, and With Nothing Underneath's boasts an excellent fit and easy-wash credentials. Recently we've been stying ours casually buttoned with wide-leg trousers—just like Gigi Hadid did earlier this week—but as September creeps closer we'll be looking to take a smarter approach, swapping out our sandals for boots and loafers, and our wide-leg trousers for a tapered pair.
Whether you're a capsule-wardrobe convert or a trend-fiend through and through, you can't go wrong with a classic button-down.
