Is the price honest?
Our take
The Tie Back Cami is the current cami in Everlane's Washable Silk line, the machine-washable silk tops the brand is best known for. It has a V-neckline, spaghetti straps, an adjustable tie back, and a loose, flowy cut. Reviewers describe the fabric as noticeably thicker than conventional silk, with a sueded, matte finish rather than a shine. Owners like skipping the dry cleaner; the caveats are high list prices, colorways that sell through quickly, and the original Washable Clean Silk Cami currently sold out.

Write the first honest reviewThe details
- Material
- Machine-washable silk — Everlane calls it Clean Silk — with a sueded, matte texture that reviewers describe as noticeably thicker than conventional silk.
- Fit
- The brand describes a loose, flowy fit with an adjustable tie back. A petite reviewer found Everlane's silk tops draped without chest gapping and called the newer washable-silk pieces more petite-friendly; owner reports on cami sizing are split, so check the size chart against a cami you own.
- Quality
- Independent reviewers rate Everlane's silk as feeling comparable to pricier silk and repeat-purchase pieces from the washable line. The sanded fabric is opaque and holds up to gentle machine washing, though it trades away the sheen of traditional silk.
- Best for
- Someone who wants a silk cami for layering under blazers or wearing out without dry-cleaning upkeep, ideally bought on one of Everlane's frequent markdowns.
- Care
- Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors, then line dry or lay flat; steam or use a warm iron if needed.
Fit check: Everlane
Varies by lineEverlane has no single direction: the slim tees and shirts run trim and a touch short, the deliberately relaxed pieces (sweaters, wide pants, jackets) run large, and denim sits true to size.
Men's reviewers report the tees and shirts cut slim and short — "their fits are generally slimmer" — and advise moving up a size if between sizes. Women's owners report the opposite on the relaxed styles: one long-term reviewer says "Everlane does typically run a little large, for the most part," sizing down in cashmere sweaters, trousers, and jackets, and calling some wide-leg pants extremely large. Denim and chinos are the stable middle — reviewers take their usual size. The consistent thread is that fit tracks the cut of each line, not the label, so owners lean on Everlane's per-garment measurements.
Sizing advice: Order your usual size in jeans and chinos, size up in the slim tees and fitted shirts if between sizes, and size down in the boxy sweaters, relaxed pants, and jackets unless you want the full oversized look.

How Everlane tops hold up overall
Reviewers who wash-tested Everlane tees report they kept their shape and didn't shrink, with only light pilling. Coverage consistently describes the range as hit or miss by style: some cuts are praised as clean-draping and flattering while others are called sheer, boxy, or tight through the shoulders and neckline. Longer-term owners report shirts still holding up after more than a year of wear.
- Strengths
- Natural-fiber tees at a mid-range price that hold their shape and resist shrinking through repeated washes.
- Watch out for
- Quality and cut vary by style — sheer fabric on some tees, tight necklines, and light pilling are the recurring complaints.
- Sizing
- Men's reviewers report fits run slim and on the short side and advise moving up one if between sizes; one women's crew style felt tight in the shoulders even after sizing up.
