I’m Considering Retiring My Boring T-Shirts Now This Chic White Summer Top Has Arrived

Pretty but polished, white square-neck blouses are quickly becoming one of summer's most important trends. Discover our edit of the very best styles to consider this season.

Since the start of the season, my trusty white tees have barely had a look-in—but honestly, who can blame me? With so many elegant white square-neck blouses popping up everywhere, it’s been hard to reach for anything else.

Just as pretty and fresh as the other blouse trends doing the rounds right now, a square-neck style stands out thanks to its clean, angular neckline. It brings a slightly sharper, more refined edge to otherwise soft, summery tops—perfect if you're after something cute but undeniably chic.

Styling just as easily with jeans as classic V-neck or round-neck blouses would, I find that there’s something about that structured neckline that feels a little more elevated. Framing the collarbones without dipping too low, it’s the kind of easy, throw-on piece that makes daily dressing feel that bit more considered.

And it’s not just me taking notice. My FYP is practically a love letter to the white square-neck blouse right now. Thankfully, high street and designer labels are catching on at just the right pace. Dôen, of course, has a dreamy selection in its signature romantic style, while H&M and Zara have also released chic, wearable takes that are well worth a look.
