Rick Owens Banana Shirt

Rick Owens Banana Shirt

Sheer black mesh top, long sleeves, fitted close to the body all the way down. Neckline’s the standout piece here, an asymmetric cutout carved diagonally across one shoulder, showing skin through the gap rather than sitting as a clean crew or scoop neck.

Fabric’s thin enough to see through in places, catches light unevenly across the chest and arms depending on how it’s photographed. Hem lands right around the waist, cropped short enough to sit above whatever’s worn underneath.

• Sheer mesh fabric, black

Fabric Feel

Mesh knit, lightweight, stretches close to the body rather than draping loose anywhere. Sheerness is intentional, not a flaw in the material, meant to layer as an under or over piece depending on what’s paired with it.

The Cutout

Diagonal strap-like cutout sits across one shoulder, breaks up what would otherwise be a plain fitted top. Asymmetric placement means it’s not mirrored on both sides, just the one shoulder catches the gap.

Layer it under something structured, or wear alone with Rick Owens Pants in leather or matte black to keep the sheer texture as the focal point. Works with Rick Owens Shorts too for a more skin-forward look.

Hand wash cold, this fabric’s delicate enough that machine washing risks snagging the mesh. Lay flat to dry, skip the iron entirely given how thin the knit is.
