A t-shirt by day, something else by night
The body is a true t-shirt: opaque jersey, round neck, straight cut. The sleeves, however, are cut from a transparent voile scattered with rhinestones, increasingly dense as you move toward the hem. It's all that separates a wardrobe piece from an evening piece, and it comes down to two short sleeves.
Wearing Experience
- Two fabrics, one garment: the contrast between opaque jersey and transparent voile is visible from three meters away.
- A gradient, not uniform scatter: rhinestones are spaced at the shoulder and dense at the sleeve edge.
- A neckline that doesn't sag: the round neck is finished with a narrow ribbed band.
- A rounded hem: slightly longer at the back, it wears as well tucked in as untucked.
Craftsmanship & Materials
Two compositions coexist, and the label distinguishes them: the body is 90% cotton and 10% silk, the sleeves 100% viscose. This is not a manufacturing convenience but the only way to achieve the two desired behaviors. Cotton and silk jersey gives the body its opacity, its structure and its muted sheen; viscose, spun very fine, gives the sleeves the transparency and lightness of voile, which even fine cotton cannot achieve.
The rhinestone setting follows an intentional progression. Near the shoulder, they are spaced, almost incidental; moving down, the density increases until forming a continuous sparkling band at the sleeve hem. This gradient prevents the all-over sparkle effect and concentrates light where the arm moves most. On black, the rhinestones are themselves black, revealing themselves only through their brilliance. Our article on choosing a quality t-shirt explains why edge finishing and armhole treatment tell more than the brand.
Styling Tips
- With a black cotton midi skirt and pumps, for an evening look that requires no effort.
- With wide-leg black linen trousers, the rhinestone-set voile lightens a dry fabric.
- With raw denim and flat sandals, when you just want the t-shirt to do the work.

Care Instructions
Delicate wash at 30°C, by hand preferably, and inside out: this is the only way to protect the rhinestones and viscose voile from drum friction. No bleach, no tumble dry, no dry cleaning. Iron on very low heat, inside out, never placing the iron on the rhinestone-set sleeves. Dry flat.
