In case you didn’t already know, the white shirt is a wardrobe essential. But to call it “basic” is to underestimate the myriad ways it can be reimagined. The spring 2016 collections offered an array of interesting options—among them, sleeve-wrapped strapless dresses at Monse and deconstructed minis at Jacquemus. Of course, you can also go a simpler route and sport it like a T-shirt—as the models do on these pages—layering it under a tank dress, or throwing one on with a pair of blue jeans. Somehow, the end result always looks perfectly polished.
