Even in the heart of winter, white tank tops are stuck to me like second skin. You wouldn't know it, since mine are stacked beneath sweaters and classic outerwear, but they're there. Now, with Anya Taylor-Joy as my guide, I'm ready to give them some forward-facing styling. She proved a plain white tank can be the main event when it's paired with a seasonal skirt. Needless to say, I know which celebrity look I'm recreating this weekend.
Taylor-Joy traded a front-row seat at London Fashion Week for a date night with her husband, Malcolm McRae, at San Vincente Bungalows in L.A on February 22. She was photographed post-dinner wearing a white, scoop-next tank, a.k.a. the easy-to-elevate essential in every fashion girl's top drawer. In lieu of a jacket, Taylor-Joy slipped on a skintight, fur-trimmed bolero. Its ribbed, teddy bear brown exterior juxtaposed the satin sheen of her mint green pencil skirt. Square-toe, olive green kitten heels boasted an almost-identical semigloss garnish. Not a single sparkler—nor a Dior by Jonathan Anderson handbag—accessorized the actor's outfit. The result? Her white tank top took center stage.
