When the Question Is What T-Shirt Trend to Wear in 2026, the Answer Is This One

When it comes to wardrobe staples, none is more at risk of being an afterthought than the humble tee, even though many among us wear them more than practically anything else in our closets. Compared to other fashion items, T-shirt trends don’t change all that often, so when I spot a fresh one, I feel the need to share it.

The latest spotting comes via none other than the highly influential Hailey Bieber, who recently posted a series of photos to her Instagram, wearing a T-shirt trend you may not have tried in a minute. Instead of a standard short-sleeve crewneck or last year’s popular baby-V-neck trend, Bieber wore a bracelet-sleeve tee. Bracelet sleeves can best be described as a 3/4-sleeve T-shirt, and when I hear the term, I picture a sleeve that’s a bit looser than the average 3/4-sleeve tee.
