The verdict
Fit
A U-neck opens the neck line more generously than a standard crew. The Rosalie likely drapes softly with a relaxed fit through the body. True to size for the intended silhouette.
Quality
At $168, construction should include reinforced neck seaming (critical for shaped necklines) and clean stripe alignment. Expected finish for this brand and price tier.
Is the price fair?
Mid-tier pricing reflects the design detail and the brand name. Fair if you love the neckline; overlapping price with other Citizens of Humanity designs at the same tier.
Best for
Shoppers who prefer softer necklines and want a striped tee with subtle design interest.
Care
U-neck seams are stress points; wash inside-out to avoid snagging the reinforced seam.
Fit check: Citizens of Humanity
Runs largeCitizens of Humanity tends to run about half a size large and stretches with wear, so most owners size down for a fitted look.
A stylist's sizing guide reports the brand "generally run[s] about half a size large" and that owners "expect about an inch of stretch in the waistband after a few hours of wear," advising those between sizes to go down one. Hands-on reviewers back this up across cuts: one who ordered her chart size in the Horseshoe jean found it loose and repurchased a size down, and a shorts reviewer says the relaxed styles "run really big" and always sizes down. The caveat owners flag is line-level: relaxed and baggy cuts run largest, while high-rise styles fit closer to true size — and older forum threads on the skinny-era styles were more mixed.
Sizing advice: Size down one if you're between sizes or want a snug fit — especially in relaxed and baggy cuts, which stretch and loosen with wear; stay true to size only if you want the intentionally slouchy look.
