A shirt is a piece of clothing for the trunk of the body.
In the UK, it refers most often to what Americans call a dress shirt or tailored shirt, i.e., a garment with a collar, cuffs, and a full vertical opening with buttons. In the U.S. it tends to have a vaguer meaning, being applied to many types of (mainly men's) tops, leaving the word "top" generally for ladieswear.
Some common types or synonyms of shirts and tops:
- T-shirt — a casual shirt without a collar or buttons, usually short-sleeved.
- polo shirt — a v-neck shirt with a full collar; opening often closed with buttons or zipper. Short or long sleeve.
- shirt or dress shirt — a shirt with collar and full vertical opening with buttons; left and right sides of this shirt meet with the placket front.
- tank top — a sleeveless T-shirt.
- wife beater — a tank top worn as an outer layer, also called an "A-shirt" or athletic shirt
- construction shirt — essentially a sleeveless t-shirt with large armholes. Often worn by construction workers for increased movability.
- camisole — woman's undershirt with narrow straps, or a similar garment worn alone (often with bra). Also referred to as a cami, shelf top, spaghetti straps or strappy top.
- tunic — primitive shirt, distinguished by two-piece construction. Initially a men's garment, is normally seen in modern times being worn by women.
- blouse — lady's shirt; the term is also used for some men's military uniform shirts.
- nightshirt — often oversized, ruined or inexpensive light cloth undergarment shirt for sleeping.
