Ever since The Frankie Shop's Eva T-shirt dropped last year, the Parisian brand has struggled to keep it in stock.

Seriously, each time it's brought back, the cult piece just sells right out again. (Although celebs such as Rita Ora and Mathilde Goehler, as well as influencers like Camille Charrière, Pernille Teisbaek and Tiffany Hsu, still managed to snap it up tho, obvs).

It's not hard to see why: this sleeveless top has a relaxed fit and padded shoulders to create a striking silhouette. It's basically a muscle T-shirt from the '80s, and we're V. into that.

This baby is the key to taking your casual jeans-and-a-tee combos to the next level (let's face it, that's about all you're wearing right now). Fashion editors have been styling it exactly like that – the denim usually black, and always high-rise – or tucking theirs into generously pleated pants in neutral hues.

We're just gonna take a second to marvel at the simplicity of this coveted T-shirt, and get a lil' jealous at the lucky women who have managed to get their hands on one:

Among them is Rita Ora, who recently posted a pic of herself wearing the brand's white version layered with gold jewellery on Instagram. The sleeveless cut was perfect for showing off her arm tats.

Pernille Teisbaek has both the black and white colourways, which she styles with everything from cowboy boots to trainers.

Tiffany Hsu dressed hers up recently with a gold belt and Bottega shoes, proving that this white T-shirt is anything but basic.

If you didn't catch the OG Eva the first, second or third time around, we've got good news for you: the high street is coming at us with some great lookalikes RN.

& Other Stories was first on the scene with an excellent take on the trend made from organic cotton. It has a baggy shape, high crewneck, subtle shoulder pads and comes in a range of colours including black, white, and a V. on-brand light khaki.

The cheapest lookalikes we've spotted are on H&M for just £9.99, available in both black and lilac for day and nighttime styling.

Our favourite by far, though, is Mango's knitted version of this cult T-shirt. Our obsession with bra-digans and cashmere co-ords is going nowhere: we dig anything that makes us look Max Mara levels of fancy. If you feel the same, we suggest you pair this cream number with tonal wide-leg trousers for a head-to-toe neutral lewk that'll turn heads.

Alternatively, invest in the sparkly black iteration to wear with black trousers and heels on your next night out.

Tbh, Mango has gone all out with the Eva tee lookalikes, just feast your eyes:

Ofc, before the Eva T-shirt, came the Linda boiler suit. This utilitarian one piece was spotted at literally every fashion week – Paris, Milan, London, New York, Copenhagen, you name it – in 2019.

The popular mint green and camel colours have sold out now, obvs, but there is an insane faux leather version for SS20 coming soon to Selfridges:

If you're crying cuz a) you wanted to the original cotton version or b) because you don't have that kind of cash lying around, then today is your lucky day. We've found some great lookalikes for a fraction of the price on the high street.
