Livotte: Basic, But Never Just Basic


Summer is almost here. The days are longer, the sun is shining, and it’s officially time to reach for your favourite T-shirt. But at Livotte, we don’t believe a basic tee should ever feel ordinary.

Our collection is built around elevated essentials that work harder for your wardrobe. Every style is crafted from our signature fabric blend of 96% organic, uncontaminated combed cotton and 4% Lycra, creating the perfect balance of softness, structure and longevity.

We source exceptionally long, smooth cotton yarns from Europe, giving each piece its luxurious feel and ensuring it washes beautifully, time after time. In fact, we’ve gone one step further by having our fabric independently tested for pilling, colourfastness and shrinkage, so you can wear and wash your favourite Livotte tee hundreds of times with confidence.

Because true sustainability isn’t about buying less—it’s about buying better.

The Elevated Everyday

We love reinventing the classic T-shirt, and some of our favourite styles include Bea, Ella, Liv and Tara. From crisp white essentials to timeless Breton stripes, each design has been thoughtfully created to slip effortlessly into your spring and summer wardrobe.

Many feature our signature crew neckline—a universally flattering shape that looks equally chic worn alone or layered with your favourite necklace. It’s simple, polished and endlessly versatile.

Five Ways to Style a Basic Tee Like a Fashion Insider

The beauty of a great T-shirt is that it can anchor almost any outfit. It can soften tailoring, balance bold prints or simply let beautiful accessories take centre stage. Here are some of our favourite ways to wear yours:

1. Bea+ Statement Skirt
Pair Bea with a denim or printed skirt, metallic flats and a bold statement necklace for an effortless lunch or evening look.

2. Ella + High-Waisted Trousers
Tie Ella gently at the waist to create definition, then style with high-waisted trousers and your favourite sneakers for an easy blend of polish and comfort.

3. Tara + Breton Chic
Our bestselling Breton stripe Tara looks effortlessly French with relaxed jeans, a silk bandana tied around the neck and a pair of gold earrings to brighten the face.

4. Lennon + Layer It Up
Our sophisticated take on the retro ringer tee instantly takes the edge off structured tailoring. Layer under a blazer, oversized shirt or leather jacket to create an outfit that feels relaxed but considered.

5. Liv + Everything
Liv may be our simplest silhouette, but that’s exactly what makes it indispensable. Tucked into tailored trousers, worn with denim or layered beneath virtually any jacket, it’s the foundation piece you’ll reach for again and again.

The Takeaway

A truly great basic is never just basic. It’s the piece that makes everything else in your wardrobe feel effortless.

At Livotte, we’ve designed T-shirts that don’t just look beautiful on day one—they’re made to stay that way for years to come.
