Cotton Gauze Ribbed Tank - Everest White
The verdict
Fit
Gauze is an open, airy weave; ribbed construction typically runs fitted. Expect the fabric to move and breathe considerably; some relaxation in fit after washing is normal for gauze.
Quality
Cotton gauze is prone to snagging and will develop small holes if caught on rough surfaces. Construction is standard for the category, but durability is inherently lower than compact cotton.
Price check
Reasonably priced for a seasonal tank. Fair value for summer rotation, but not a year-round workhorse. Price reflects the intended, limited use.
Best for
Warm-weather dressing, hot climates, or layering under sheer pieces where breathability and transparency matter.
Care
Wash gently and inspect seams regularly, as the loose weave is prone to small tears. Lay flat to dry to avoid stretching.

Fit check: James Perse
True to sizeOwners report James Perse's numeric sizing (0=XS up to 5=XXL) runs true to size, with a deliberately relaxed, California-casual cut rather than a slim one.
Reviewers and sizing guides agree the numbered sizing maps predictably to standard sizes and stays consistent across tees, tanks, long sleeves, and sweats — one long-term owner wears the same size 1 across every James Perse product she owns. The caveat owners flag is that the house cut is intentionally roomy: tees and sweats read slightly relaxed at your true size, so people wanting a trim fit sometimes size down, while button-ups and polos can wear looser than the marked size suggests. On the women's side, fitted jersey pieces are the exception — reviewers note the skinny and fitted styles run small, and pants are cut long.
Sizing advice: Take your usual size converted to the number scale (0=XS, 2=M, 3=L); size down only if you want a trim fit in the relaxed tees and sweats, and size up in fitted jersey styles.

What owners report about James Perse tops
Owners consistently describe James Perse tees as unusually soft combed-cotton shirts with a cut that fits well through the chest and a collar that keeps its shape. Sizing on the brand's numeric scale is reported as consistent across tees, tanks, and long sleeves. The recurring complaint is value: at the brand's premium tee pricing, owners report light pilling after machine washing and question how long the shirts last for the money. Gentle-cycle washing and air drying are widely recommended to keep them in shape.
