Girlfriend Collective is no stranger to making its stylish athleisure designs out of unwanted materials like single-use plastic bottles and discarded fishing nets, and its new Perfect White Tee Collection repurposes cotton industry waste.
Many women are on the hunt for the perfect white t-shirt to add to their wardrobe and now, there are five environmentally friendly styles to choose from by Girlfriend Collective, all of which are breathable and biodegradable. One of the most classic styles is the aptly named Perfect Crew Neck Tee, while other staples like the Perfect Long Sleeve and the Perfect Tank promise to be just as essential to a well-rounded wardrobe.
Thanks to the upcycled materials that they make the most of, these clean and simple t-shirts require significantly less water to be made as compared to traditional cotton shirts.
