"It's a nice thick cotton material and feels quite premium — the side zips make it easy to breastfeed and I'm loving how relaxed it is on my body, isn't tight at all around my neck or tummy."

Lily Sigmund Verified Buyer

"Oversized and very high quality fabric — it has survived grabby hands and repeated washes. 10/10. The best feeding friendly basic tee I've found!"

Lexrz Verified Buyer

"The fabric is incredibly soft and comfortable. What impressed me most was how seamlessly the zippers blend into the design — I could hardly tell they were there. Exceeded my expectations in every way!"

Melissa Darcey Verified Buyer

"As a breastfeeding mum I feel so comfortable and stylish — the fabric is high quality and I've already gotten so much wear out of it. Makes me feel that bit more put together!"

Anna Hoole Verified Buyer

"Such a cute graphic tee — quality is great and the fit is perfect and slouchy! Love that the zips are on both sides and go all the way up. Wish I could have these in every colour!"

Tyler Wilson Verified Buyer
Why You’ll Love It

The “I woke up like this” of tees. With a slouchy shoulder, boxy fit, and soft Tencel blend, this is the kind of throw-on-and-go magic you’ll want in every colour. It’s that good.

Need to feed a bub mid-errand? Easy. Sneaky side zips mean no wrestling with your outfit in a car park. It's fashion meets function.

Why you’ll love her:

  • Hidden side zips (for sneaky boob access)
  • 100% Cotton
  • Classic crew neckline & boxy cut (the style that goes with everything)
  • Oversized and slouchy (thank us later)
  • Colour: Grey Marle
  • Ethically made in: PRC with love

Maternity & Postpartum approved:

Soft, stretchy, zip-access makes the Essentials Tee a must have for bump to boob and beyond.

Style tip:

Pair with the matching Essentials Pants for a coordinated ‘hot mum on the move’ look, or team it with TLC Denim and sneakers when you want to pretend you didn’t just spill puree on your jeans.
How It Fits (Spoiler: Like a Dream)

Our Essentials Tee are loose fitting and light weight. We would suggest this design for you if you are someone who likes oversized loose fitting clothing. Our size recommendation is exactly that, a recommendation and is based on general sizing. Please keep in mind everyone's fit preference and body is different.

TIPS FOR CHOOSING THE BEST SIZE/FIT
• We recommend choosing your size based on your Bust and waist measurements.
(If you like a more oversized look, we recommend sizing up)
• If you're ever unsure please contact our customer service team who will be more than happy to assist you in choosing the correct size.
A little TLC for your piece

🌸 How to Care for Your Essentials Tee
Your Essentials Tee is designed to keep up with couch hangs, coffee runs, and mum-life moments — but a little extra care will keep her looking fresh:
* Wash me gently – Cold machine wash on a gentle cycle, inside out to protect my colour and shape.
* Skip the harsh stuff – No bleach or soaking; it’ll mess with my softness and stretch.
* Air me out – Line dry in the shade to keep me feeling lush. Tumble drying? Not my vibe.
* Smooth me out – If I’m a little crinkly, a warm iron or gentle steam will have me back in shape.
* Store me simple – Fold me flat or hang me up, and I’ll be ready for your next “throw-on-and-go” moment.

incredible tee

Love the tee so much! I am living in the essential tees (I have four now), love the slide seams for breastfeeding and also just so the tee isn’t hugging your hips 🔥

Super comfy and convenient!

This tee is so comfortable and makes it easy to get breastfeeding access. I sized up as I love an oversized top while breastfeeding. It gives that effortless mum look that we all love.

Does the Essentials Tee run true to size?

Sizing opinions are fairly split, but customers who prefer a more comfortable, relaxed fit tend to size up. Those wanting a closer fit stick to their usual size.

Is it suitable for pregnancy and breastfeeding?

Yes — the Essentials Tee is a firm favourite throughout pregnancy and beyond. Customers love how it accommodates a growing bump without feeling restrictive, and it makes nursing easy and discreet once baby arrives.

What occasions is it perfect for?

The Essentials Tee is endlessly versatile — customers reach for it on everyday errands, work, casual weekends and say it is just as easy to dress up for an evening as it is to keep casual for everyday wear.

How do customers style it?

Incredibly easy to style — customers love pairing the Essentials Tee with Posey Pants & Matilda Shorts. It transitions effortlessly from a relaxed daytime look to something more dressed up.

Feeding, But Make It Chic

The Essentials Tee is breastfeeding-friendly without screaming “nursing top.” Featuring a sneaky two-way zip on the side seam, it’s made for easy, discreet feeds on the go – no awkward flaps or layers required. Wear it zipped up for everyday cool, or unzip when bub calls. It’s your essential for a reason.

Zip It Good

Looks like your fave oversized tee… but surprise! It’s also your feeding MVP. The Essentials Tee hides a two-way zip in the side seam so you can breastfeed easily, discreetly, and stylishly. Comfort? Tick. Function? Double tick. Cooler than before you had kids? Absolutely.
