Betty Basics NZ: What’s New, What’s Hot & Why We Love It
NEW SEASON FASHION
EASY-WEAR BETTY BASICS
If there’s one label our customers come back to again and again, it’s Betty Basics. Relaxed, easy to wear and priced so you can build a whole wardrobe rather than buy one piece, it’s been a RAPT ONLINE favourite for years. The new spring/summer pieces have been landing in store over the last few weeks, so here’s what’s new, what’s flying out the door and why we love this brand so much.
SHOP BETTY BASICSWHAT’S NEWWhy we love Betty Basics
1Great style starts with the essentials
Betty Basics is an Australian label built around the pieces you actually wear every day: tees, tee dresses, easy pants, relaxed denim and soft sweats. They’re the foundations of a wardrobe, done really well.
2Fabrics that feel good
Think breathable viscose/linen blends for summer, 100% cotton and cotton denim, and cosy fleece for winter. Our customers often tell us they live in their Betty pieces because they’re so comfortable.
3Shapes that flatter real bodies
Elasticated waists, drawcords, wide legs, shirring and relaxed fits mean Betty Basics is easy to wear and forgiving. We stock most styles in sizes 8 to 22, so it works across a huge range of shapes and sizes.
4Prices that make sense
Most tees are under $55 and most dresses and pants sit between $80 and $110. It’s quality you can mix and match without spending a fortune.
5Pieces that work together
Every drop is designed as a collection, with matching sets and colours that pair with what you already own. Buy a top and a pant and you’ve got a ready-made outfit.
