Description

The Shell Tee is a true Kuwaii staple that is a great base for any capsule wardrobe because of its style, simplicity and versatility. It’s a flattering tee style which can be worn both layered or styled on it's own. Our Shell Tee is an integral part of our ‘Classics’ range and is one of the most popular styles we have ever produced since we first introduced it in 2011. We have perfected the cut to suit all shapes, sizes and heights, and we know that this is a truly beloved wardrobe staple, because our customers have told us so! Crafted this season in a 100% Wool Crepe sourced from Japan.

Proudly Made in Melbourne in an ethically accredited factory.

Simple, stylish and fits so well

I'm a long time fan of the shell tops, I think the bias cut is even a little more flattering and comfortable to wear. The pink is beautiful, and people comment on the texture often!

Hi Simone,
Thank you for your review of the Bias Shell Tee. We're so glad that you're loving it, we absolutely love the colour and fabric texture too! Thank you for your support - the Kuwaii Team x

Bias Shell Tee - Fuschia Check

Love the cap sleeve on this top. The top is slightly cropped on me. Would suggest sizing up in this style if you want a more relaxed fit.

Size Guide

At Kuwaii we have three different sizing systems that we use across our garments.

Our sizing tends to be generous and designed for comfort. If you're between sizes, we recommend sizing down.

"Dual Size": Used for oversized or relaxed-fit garments, such as outerwear or knitwear. These sizes are designed to be loose and comfortable.

"Alpha Size": This flexible sizing accommodates a range of numeric sizes, making it ideal for stretchy or flowing items. Refer to the chart below if you're unsure of your alpha size.

"Numerical Size": This refers to the standard numerical sizing system used for non-stretch fabrics and styles that are fitted - for example pants that may have a firm waist band. These garments are designed to fit "true to size." Check our detailed sizing chart online and check your measurements to determine which size would be best for you. 

Sizing charts are a guide. For specific fit questions, please contact us at 03 9380 5731 or contact@kuwaii.com.au.
