Getting dressed in the morning is often complicated. However, the process is easier when your wardrobe is filled with basics that look great and feel great, too. That kind of uncomplicated comfort is exactly what Richer Poorer does best.
For those unfamiliar, Richer Poorer is a California-based clothing brand that got its start in the socks and intimates space before expanding into seriously comfortable basics and loungewear for everyone. What makes Richer Poorer so great, you ask? The fabrics are the kind of soft you want to wrap yourself up in whenever you get the chance. The styles are spot-on — simple, stylish, and universally flattering. And for the most part, the prices feel pretty fair.
Everyone needs a great basics brand in their back pocket. One you can rely on when they need a new T-shirt, cozy sweatshirt, or even just a pair of underwear. Richer Poorer is just that, with the California-cool aesthetic that, let's face it, we all want to embody so effortlessly. Here's why Richer Poorer is on our highly-vetted list of the best women's basic brands.
Linen Maxi Dress

In Insider Reviews' guide to the best maxi dresses, style writer Talia Ergas writes: "Richer Poorer's Linen Maxi Dress has a flattering babydoll cut that I like to wear with a denim maxi jacket draped over my shoulders."
The dress is made of a linen blend that's perfect for summer months. Plus, it's incredibly comfortable — so comfortable you could even wear it to bed.
Women's Relaxed Crop Tee

This top is one of the best T-shirts for women because of its buttery-soft material, ability to hold up over multiple washes, and breezy silhouette. Richer Poorer even pre-washes most of its products so that they arrive soft and already broken in. Made from 100% cotton, this is the perfect shirt if you want something cropped but still a little oversized.
"I cannot say enough good things about the material and feel. The only issue I have is that, personally, I like my T-shirts to be a little more fitted, so this wasn't my white whale. But if you're into a more relaxed cut, it could be yours." —Samantha Crozier, style editor, Insider Reviews.
The Men's Pima Crew Pocket Tee
Richer Poorer
If you ask us, T-shirts are some of Richer Poorer's best work. The soft Pima cotton feels super smooth to the touch. The color options, ranging from simple neutrals to vivid neons, have something for everyone. A workwear style pocket makes the tee feel a bit more casual. These tees are pill-resistant and more durable than your average cotton, so you can wear them time and time again, making them worth the upgrade.
