Women's Tops
Trousers determine the silhouette; the top sets the mood. A white T-shirt with jeans says “relaxed Saturday”; the same outfit with a sequin top says “we're staying out late tonight”. That's why it's worth looking a little more closely at women's tops.
At JJXX, our selection of women's tops covers three main groups: T-shirts, tops and jumpers, plus polo shirts and long-sleeved styles for cooler days. Plain basics sit alongside striped tees, back prints and glitter details. Here's how to find the right top for every occasion.
T-shirts, tops and jumpers: three wardrobe classics
T-shirts make up the largest group in our women's tops range and form the foundation of any wardrobe. Basic tees in white, black or grey are easy to mix and match, working just as well for everyday wear as under a blazer.
Tops are sleeveless or have very short sleeves. Sleeveless tops are ideal for warm weather, but also work for layering under a cardigan or shirt. You'll find shorter styles among our cropped tops.
When it gets colder, it's time for jumpers – plain, striped or textured. For the in-between seasons, try our long-sleeved tops, which provide extra coverage without being too warm.
The neckline makes the difference
Few details change the feel of a women's top as much as its neckline. Our range offers plenty of options:
- Crew neck: The classic and by far the most common neckline in our collection. It goes with everything and always looks neat.
- Boat neck: Wide and shallow, running from shoulder to shoulder. It highlights the collarbones and looks elegant, especially with simple jewellery.
- V-neck: Visually lengthens the neck and gives a slightly more feminine look. Ideal if you'd like to wear a necklace.
- Square neckline: Angular and modern, often found on tops with narrow straps.
- High neck and mandarin collar: For a clean, almost minimalist look. A high collar gives the top a striking silhouette.
- Off-the-shoulder, halterneck and asymmetric: The statement options. An off-the-shoulder top or asymmetric cut looks modern and is perfect for summer or an evening out.
How to style women's tops
Styling women's tops is all about proportions. The rule of thumb: loose and fitted pieces balance each other. A relaxed tee works with skinny jeans or a pencil skirt, while a fitted top complements wide-leg trousers. A belt defines the waist when a top falls loosely.
For everyday wear, a white tee with jeans always works. For the office, pair a simple top or polo shirt with tailored trousers and a blazer. For evening looks, let the top take centre stage and keep the rest understated, perhaps with a plain skirt or dark jeans.
Women's tops in black and white
Sometimes, all a good outfit needs is the right colour. Black tops are the starting point for clean outfits and pair easily with jeans, tailored trousers or a skirt. For a brighter, fresher look, white tops are a great choice. Both shades work on their own or layered under a blazer or cardigan. Two classics, countless combinations.
The right size: fit that looks and feels good
Even the nicest women's top loses its appeal if it doesn't fit properly. On a T-shirt, the shoulder seam should sit at the edge of the shoulder, unless the style is deliberately loose or boxy. Top straps shouldn't dig into the skin, and jumper sleeves should finish at the wrist. You'll find the exact measurements in our women's size guide.
From blouses to knitwear: discover more women's tops
Looking for something smarter than a T-shirt? Take a look at our shirts, where you'll also find blouses. For cooler days, knitwear and sweatshirts offer a cosier option. You'll find the right trousers to go with your new top among our women's jeans. So there's a top for every mood and every kind of weather.
