It crosses generations and social classes, it can be combined with almost anything and the length of its sleeves or the tightness of its chest has marked the style of celebrities (and anonymous) decade by decade.
In recent times, The Bear series stylists have harnessed the iconic power of the white T-shirt by dressing its lead actor, Jeremy Allen White, almost exclusively in it during the first season. In response to speculation, wardrobe manager Cristina Spiridakis confirmed that for Carmy Berzatto - Allen White's character - she had opted for the German brand Merz b. Schwanen, whose catalog offers different types of collars - including open collars with mother-of-pearl buttons, reminiscent of the undergarments still worn at the beginning of the last century - colors, thicknesses and sleeve lengths, and which stand out for their high quality and corresponding prices.
