21 best striped shirts that your wardrobe will thank you for
Effortless, chic, and something that will stay in your wardrobe for years to come, the best striped shirts are a staple that can take you from the office to the bar (or from bae’s house to yours a la Carrie Bradshaw) with a simple tuck and a loosened button.
Whilst the crisp clean cut of the white shirt says you mean business, stripes bring dimension to the simplest of ‘fits. Every year we see the collared classic make its comeback. From Gucci – who paired one with a humble trench coat on their AW23 runway – to H&M's latest collection drop, the colour palettes may change but the clean-cut formula remains intact.
Of course, striped shirts have been around for decades (hark back to Chanel bringing them to the height of fashion in the '30s, and then Audrey Hepburn and Brigitte Bardot who were renowned for wearing them in the '50s), but they've had even more of a surge in popularity as of late. Matilda Djerf's penchant for striped oxford shirts sparked a deeper obsession within the rest of us last summer, and it's something we've not been able to shake since.

While the classic blue and white styles Matilda wears remain a favourite, rainbow hues of sherbet yellow, grassy green and Barbiecore pink have been just as popular this season. We're seeing far more worn open as jacket replacements, too, or thrown over midi dresses, paired with denim shorts, or unbuttoned to the nave and worn with high-waisted mom jeans and some sultry lingerie poking out.
That said, the true beauty of striped shirts is that they needn't really be styled at all. Their sheer nonchalance means they take minimal effort and yet somehow always manage to make an outfit appear well thought through. That's something we can get behind.
