With Nothing Underneath
The kind of clothes you stop thinking about once you put them on.
FEATURED
Editorially selected for The Exquisite Guide.
In a nutshell
With Nothing Underneath began with one beautifully simple idea: take the ease of a man's shirt and make it for women.
That simplicity still runs through the brand. Classic shirting, relaxed proportions, natural materials and an understated palette create clothes designed less around the arrival of a new season than the reality of getting dressed.
There is restraint here, but not austerity. The pieces feel easy, useful and quietly polished. They are the sort of clothes that can become part of the architecture of a wardrobe, worn repeatedly and differently without requiring much thought.
Perhaps that is the appeal. With Nothing Underneath makes simplicity feel considered rather than basic.
What we love
- 01
The restraint
There is very little novelty for novelty's sake. Cut, proportion and material are allowed to do the work.
- 02
The materials
Cotton, linen and hemp feature across the collection, bringing natural texture and breathability to clothes intended to live close to the body.
- 03
The longevity
These are familiar forms rather than fashion moments. A good shirt does not need reinventing every six months.
Made to live in
The best everyday clothes almost disappear into your life.
With Nothing Underneath seems to understand this particularly well. Relaxed cuts, familiar forms and natural materials make the clothes feel uncomplicated to wear, while the simplicity of the designs allows them to move easily between settings and seasons.
A shirt can be crisp or rumpled, tucked into tailoring or thrown over a swimsuit. It can be dressed carefully or barely styled at all.
There is something luxurious about that lack of demand.
Material matters
The brand's preference for natural and plant-derived fibres is part of what makes the proposition interesting.
Cotton, linen and hemp bring their own texture and character, but material choice also matters beyond appearance. With Nothing Underneath reports predominantly European production, including manufacturing in Portugal, alongside supplier standards and factory auditing. Its garment-care guidance encourages cooler washing, air drying and longer use.
None of this needs to become the story of the clothes.
Perhaps the more compelling idea is simply that a garment should be considered beyond the moment it is bought: how it feels, how often it can be worn, how it ages and, eventually, what happens to the material from which it was made.
