Whether it's hitting the gym or staying cool in the sun, the tank top is a fashion staple to refresh season after season.

Renew your summer basics with tank tops

Lightweight, breathable, versatile and easy to wear, the tank top is a fundamental part of any sun-loving wardrobe. These sleeveless essentials vary from sports-focused designs in specialised fabrics to trend-driven pieces that incorporate catwalk looks and influences. Wear a sports tank top with a pair of tracksuit bottoms or leggings for a practical gym outfit or team printed tank tops with a comfy pair of jeans and flats for an easy summer look.

Work the layering trend with a simple tank top

Choose tank tops featuring current prints, rich colour and unique details for an easy way to experiment with new trends. A fluorescent tank top in lime green or vibrant pink is a great way to play with neon fashion trends, or go for a striped tank top in cream and navy to channel a nautical look. Lift pinafore dresses, dungarees and cardigans with a tank top in a statement colour for some chic layering.
