Description
An oversized boxy crop T-shirt in a cotton blend
This T-shirt by Tessita is wide and short on purpose. The body is cut straight, the shoulders drop and the hem stops at the waist, so it sits like a little box over whatever you wear below.
The knit is 70% cotton and 30% polyester. There are two sizes, 54 and 56 cm long, and eight colours. Please note: the photos show it with matching shorts, but this page sells the T-shirt only.

The piece: one top, not a set
The supplier calls it a short sleeve blouse inspired by street fashion, with a loose, straight cut, attached sleeves and hems at the edges, sewn from knit fabric. Each of the eight colours has its own model number, and the facts are the same for all.
This product was presented as a co-ord set before. The maker's data lists one garment under these model numbers, the top. The shorts in the photos belong to a separate product, so do not expect them in the parcel.
Who it's for
For you if you like a T-shirt with shape. A regular tee clings or hangs; this one stands away from the body and shows a strip of waist when you raise your arms.
The sizing is generous. The smaller size already has a chest of 122 cm, so it is oversized on almost everyone who would normally take XS to M.
Closer look: what the maker's data and the photos show
- Loose, straight cut (maker's data)
- Short sleeves, set in below a dropped shoulder (maker's data, photos)
- Hems at the edges of sleeves and body (maker's data)
- Round neck (photos)
- Body that ends at the waist (photos)
Fabric and feel: cotton-rich knit
The composition is 70% cotton and 30% polyester. In the photos the knit looks thicker than a normal T-shirt jersey, closer to a light sweatshirt fabric, which is why the boxy shape holds. That is our reading of the pictures; the maker gives no weight.
The supplier's text also mentions a certificate for the fabric. We have not seen that certificate, so we leave the claim out.
Fit: two sizes, both wide
The maker's table has two rows. XS/S/M is 54 cm long with a chest of 122 cm. L/XL/XXL is 56 cm long with a chest of 132 cm. The difference in length is only 2 cm, so the larger size is mainly wider.
On this page you may see other size names on the buttons. The maker supplies these two only, so pick the one that matches your usual size.

Styling: high waist below
A short, wide top asks for a high waistband. In the photos that is a pair of sweat shorts in the same colour, with white trainers. High-waisted jeans, a midi skirt or wide trousers work the same way.
The maker suggests urban outfits. We like the black one with tailored trousers too, for a clean look that still feels relaxed.
Occasions
This is a weekend and warm-weather top. Wear it in town, on holiday or at home on the sofa. It is casual by design.
Care: follow the label
The maker's data has no care instructions, so follow the label sewn into the T-shirt.
A general habit for cotton knits: wash inside out and avoid a hot dryer, since cotton can shrink and this top is already short.
The wow detail: the proportions
A chest of 122 cm on a length of 54 cm. Those two numbers are the design. The top is more than twice as wide around as it is long, and that is what gives it the square outline you see in the photos.
