Neutral basics — think white tees, beige trousers, black tank tops, grey sweatshirts — form the foundation of every well-curated wardrobe. They’re timeless, versatile, and effortlessly stylish. But finding high-quality essentials that actually fit properly can be tricky. That’s where this guide (and Tellar.co.uk) comes in.

Whether you’re after a crisp white tee, oatmeal knit, or black joggers, here’s where to shop — and how to get your perfect size every time.

Why Neutral Basics?

Neutral tones like black, white, grey, taupe, navy, and camel match anything and work all year. But when it comes to basics, fit is everything. Even a white tee looks bad if it clings awkwardly or hangs shapeless.

That’s why Tellar.co.uk exists — to match your body to real-time sizing for over 1,500 brands.
