Show more productsGirls' T-shirts: a guide to choosing the style and size
tuc tuc girls' T-shirts are mainly long-sleeved jersey tops with frills, bows, embroidery, sequins and prints of butterflies, flowers, cats or hearts. The range also includes a few woven fabric shirts and knitted tank tops. Sizes go from 6 months to 16 years. Pair them with girls' leggings or a skirt.
Everyday or a little smarter
For school and the park, a printed long-sleeved jersey T-shirt is the hardest-wearing option. Styles with frilled shoulders, bows or a sparkly neckline look dressier and are great for a lunch out or a birthday party. Embroidered woven fabric shirts are the more formal alternative.

Layering for spring and autumn
A long-sleeved jersey T-shirt works on its own in autumn and spring, and as a base layer in winter under a sweatshirt or a knitted tank top.
Caring for the details
Frills and sequins last longer if you wash the T-shirt inside out, on a cold wash and without tumble drying. Always follow the care label on each garment.
Frills for school?
For everyday wear, choose soft frills on the sleeves or shoulders and flat prints; save the sequins and sparkly appliqués for outings. That way her school T-shirt survives more washes and keeps looking good.
Frequently asked questions
What size T-shirt does a 7-year-old girl need?
Usually size 7 years, designed for a height of 117–122 cm. If she's already taller than 122 cm, move up to size 8 years (123–128 cm). Measure your daughter barefoot and enter her height on the product page to see the recommended size.
What's the best girls' T-shirt for school?
For school, a long-sleeved jersey T-shirt with a flat print works best: it's comfy, moves well and stands up to frequent washing. Pair it with leggings or trousers and add a girls' sweatshirt for chillier days.
How do I wash a girls' T-shirt with sequins?
Wash it inside out, on a cold wash, ideally on a delicate cycle and without tumble drying; always follow the care label. This stops the sequins from snagging or coming loose. Dry it flat and don't iron over the sparkly details.
What goes with a girls' frilled T-shirt?
A frilled T-shirt looks great with plain leggings, jeans or a simple skirt: let the frill be the star. If you'd like a complete look without the guesswork, have a look at our girls' sets, coordinated in colour and print.
Does tuc tuc have long-sleeved T-shirts for girls?
Yes, most tuc tuc girls' T-shirts are long-sleeved jersey, with prints of butterflies, flowers, cats, hearts or cities and details such as frills and bows. There are also woven fabric shirts and knitted tank tops, all made in compliance with the EU REACH regulation.
Is a T-shirt a good gift for a 10-year-old girl?
Yes, if you choose a design with personality, such as slogans, sparkle or animal prints, which girls that age really love. Check her height before you buy: size 10 years corresponds to 129–136 cm, and if in doubt, go for the next size up.
