Christopher Kane has become the go-to man for a fashion tee. This season he has opted for a vivid iris print on vests and T-shirts, all in the softest cotton you could wish to wear.

Next summer is set to be the season of the tattoo. It's true, Louis Vuitton said so, and if Louis V decree it then it shall come to pass. However if permanent ink is not your thing (it's not ours, this desk has a low pain threshhold ) we suggest this 'true love' tat inspired vest. Pain free.

If you are still baulking at £255 for a T-shirt then try this for size, a sale bargain if ever we saw one from Sienna Miller's label. Rumour has it she designed this for Jude Law.
