Raglan Tees Trending as Spring Wardrobe Staple
The raglan tee, also known as a baseball tee, is having a resurgence in fashion. Vogue writer Emma Spedding highlights the style's appeal, noting its sporty origins and versatility. The raglan sleeve construction, which eliminates shoulder seams, was commonly worn by baseball players in the 1960s. Spedding was inspired by Zoë Kravitz wearing an Auralee version in New York last summer and by Rachel Green's outfits on 'Friends.' She purchased two Cou Cou Intimates Rina tees in raglan style (white and navy with grey sleeves) and pairs them with a Charlie Beads slip skirt, Repetto Camilles, bootcut jeans, and ballet flats. The Cou Cou version, based on a Jane Birkin top, features a slim fit, bell sleeves, curved front, and ¾ sleeves. Spedding also wears the tees with track shorts, flip-flops, and a Montreal Canadiens hat for a sporty look. The article includes a shopping edit of various raglan and baseball tees from brands like Cou Cou Intimates, Guest in Residence, Los Angeles Apparel, and others.
