Use the chest and length measurements to pick your Pretend I'm Not Here unisex tank top size, then layer it under open shirts without hiding the print.
Quick answer
Choose your Pretend I'm Not Here unisex tank top size by body width first, not by your usual T-shirt letter. Measure your chest, add 2–4 inches for a relaxed fit, and match that number to the body width column. If you plan to layer it under an open shirt, stay with your measured size; if you want it as a standalone summer top, size up one for a looser drape.
Why the size chart is the only reliable fit guide here
The product page lists body length and body width for XS through 2XL, but it does not list a recommended body measurement or a fit model. That means you cannot rely on “true to size” language or compare it to a specific shirt you already own. The numbers are the only concrete fit data, so treat them as your starting point and measure a tank top you already like flat across the chest.
Because the tank is unisex, the cut is straighter through the waist than a women’s-specific tank. If you usually buy women’s sizes, your unisex size may be one smaller than expected in the body but longer in the hem. Use the width measurement to decide, then check the length against where you want the hem to sit.
Layering changes the size decision more than the print does
A tank top worn under an open button-down or overshirt needs to sit close to the body so it does not bunch at the armholes or create bulk across the chest. In that case, pick the size that matches your chest measurement plus 2 inches, not the size that gives you the loosest standalone fit. The graphic will still show in the center opening, but the tank’s side seams should stay inside the outer shirt’s seams.
For standalone wear, the same tank can feel restrictive if the body width is too close to your chest measurement. Sizing up one gives more room through the waist and a slightly longer hem, which changes the proportion with high-waisted shorts or trousers. There is no stretch information in the catalog, so do not assume the fabric will give you extra room after washing.
Black fabric and print placement: what the catalog does and does not tell you
The black colorway is described as 100% ring-spun cotton, and the design is digitally printed. The catalog does not specify print dimensions or placement beyond the product image, so check the image carefully for where the graphic sits relative to the neckline and hem. If you plan to layer, a print that sits high on the chest will remain visible under an open collar; a lower print may be partly covered.
Colors can vary from screen to screen, so the black you see on your monitor may read slightly warmer or cooler in person. That matters if you are matching the tank to a specific overshirt. The catalog also notes the tank ships separately from other items in the shop, which is worth knowing if you are ordering a layer to wear with it at the same time.
Decision rules for sizing and layering
- Measure before you choose a letter size: Measure your chest at its fullest point, then measure a tank top you already wear flat across the chest from armpit to armpit and double it. Compare that number to the body width column. If your chest measures 38 inches and you want a relaxed standalone fit, look for a body width around 20–21 inches, which falls between M and L on this chart. Write down both numbers before ordering; do not convert directly from a women’s or men’s T-shirt size.
- Layer close, wear standalone loose: If the tank is a base layer under an open shirt, choose the size whose body width is 2–3 inches larger than your chest measurement. If it is the only top, choose 4–6 inches larger for a relaxed drape. The length difference between sizes is about 1 inch per step, so sizing up also lowers the hem slightly. Decide layering versus standalone first; that choice can move you one size.
- Check the hem against your bottoms: The body length runs from 26 inches in XS to 31 inches in 2XL. If you want to tuck the tank, a longer size gives you more fabric to work with. If you want it to sit above high-waisted shorts, choose a length close to your torso measurement rather than sizing up for width alone. Length and width move together on this chart; you cannot adjust one without the other.
- Accept the print placement you can see: The catalog does not list print dimensions, so use the product image to judge how much of the graphic stays visible under an open overshirt. If the print sits low on the chest, an open shirt will cover more of it. If you want the graphic to be the focal point, wear the tank without a layer or choose an overshirt that hangs open wide. If print visibility is critical, treat the product image as your only placement reference.
