13 Gap Travel Clothes That Look Like Reformation

If our tastes are anything alike, you too love to scroll through Reformation’s website, admiring all of the brand’s beautiful, timeless pieces and adding them to your cart. If our budgets are also similar, you never end up checking out with said cart, as Reformation’s prices are usually above my pricepoint.

​I think I found a solution to this issue. As a shopping writer, I was doing my due diligence, looking through retailers’ latest drops to see if anything exciting or noteworthy had launched. As I was searching through Gap’s latest arrivals, I had to check not once, but twice, that I wasn’t on Reformation’s website since I kept seeing lookalike items from gorgeous drop-waist dresses, romantic eyelet tops, and even capsule wardrobe staples—all at Gap prices. I even found this sweater T-shirt that would be the perfect light layer to throw into your personal item bag when traveling. Shop now to be the best-dressed traveler in the airport (and throughout your trip), with deals starting at just $29.

Writer’s Favorite Gap Picks

Gap’s latest drop is full of pieces, like this Crop Shell Tank Top, that can be worn on its own, or as a matching set with various Gap bottoms. The flattering boatneck cut of this top creates a timeless look, and, despite being a sleeveless crop top, this shirt has a nice weight to it, thanks to the linen-blend. Available in petite, regular, and tall, with sizing ranging from 2XS-3XL, this top will look like it was tailor-made for you.

This cute mini skort can be worn with any top already in your wardrobe, or with the Gap crop tank top as a matching set. Enjoy the fun, short hemlines of this ultra mini skirt without worrying about a wardrobe malfunction, thanks to the interior shorts. This mid-rise skort also features a concealed zipper with a hook-and-eye closure at the side for a more secure fit. This five-star reviewer notes that you can easily dress the skort up or down, and that the fit is “not too tight around [the] waist, and the length is not too short or [too] long.” 

No capsule wardrobe is complete without a classic shift dress. Crafted from 100 percent cotton, this soft mini dress features an eyelet hem that is perfect for spring. A cute, small pocket adorns the left chest, and the back zipper closure makes putting on the dress and its fitted jewel neckline easier. Enjoy wearing it in early spring with tights and your favorite pair of boots, or throughout the summer with a colorful pair of sandals or ballet flats.

Gap’s Linen-blend Drop-waist Maxi Dress looks like it was taken right off a Reformation clothing rack. The elegant square neckline paired with the drop Basque waist creates a romantic silhouette. Meanwhile, the featured smock back panel and elasticized bubble sleeves offer more flexibility and breathing room in this otherwise fitted dress. If you’re wondering how this dress could get any better, let me satisfy your curiosity: it has convenient pockets lining the seams, useful and well-hidden at the same time. 

If you’re in the market for a dress with a more easy-breezy vibe, look no further than the Lace Ruffle Voile Maxi Dress. Although airy and featuring crochet lace detail, you’ll be completely covered in this dress thanks to its full lining. The material is 100 percent cotton, helping you regulate your temperature, whether you’re wearing this dress early or late into spring. The flutter cap sleeves are an additional fun and feminine detail, as well as the pearlescent buttons marching up the front of the dress.

Just like in the fall, layering is key to spring dressing. This relaxed shirt jacket makes the perfect light layer that pairs well withover all of your outfits. The jacket is soft to the touch, thanks to its 100 percent cotton construction. The relaxed fit creates an effortlessly cool vibe, which is only further enhanced by the jacket’s details, including the spread collar and scalloped eyelet hem.

Known for its denim, I’m always tracking Gap’s new releases to see their latest designs. I already had high expectations, but this Denim Boatneck Open-back Mini Dress blew me away. The universally flattering sleeveless dress features a boat neckline with a scoop back. Although composed of 99 percent cotton, the remaining 1 percent is elastane, offering a bit of stretch for the wearer. The princess seams on the front and back of the dress also add visual appeal and structure. It comes in a medium indigo wash, a dark indigo wash, and even a purple floral pattern to spice things up. 

This linen-blend maxi slip skirt looks amazing on its own, and can also be paired with the crop tank top to create a cute set. The elasticized waist is comfortable enough for all-day wear—so much so that I recommend it for travel days when you want to feel relaxed while still wearing an elevated, stylish outfit. The cut of this skirt creates the perfect drape, and the side slit adds a fun touch of personality. The heavyweight linen-blend material makes the skirt feel soft to the touch and helps keep it from flying up, even when worn on a breezy day. 

My go-to travel day outfit always includes an oversized shirt, and this linen option is an amazing temperature-regulating style to wear as temperatures begin to rise. The collared button-up shirt is made of 100 percent linen, feeling soft against the skin all day. The shirttail hem is flattering and offers more coverage than more tailored tops. This five-star reviewer loves the shirt so much that they have it in four colors. They shared that the shirt “washes well, [and is] perfect for adding a pop of color to a layering outfit when traveling.”

I can’t travel, even if I’m flying somewhere tropical, without at least one cozy layer to wear on my flight, in my chilly hotel room, or even in the evening when the sun is down, and the air is cooler. This sweater T-shirt is a perfect option, and I’ll be adding it to my travel capsule wardrobe immediately. Made from Gap’s popular Cashsoft material, whichout of Gap’s popular Cashsoft material that feels cashmere-level soft, it feels luxurious every time you wear it. This crewneck sweater t-shirt offers a relaxed fit, raglan elbow sleeves, and a ribbed hemline to elevate a simple tee look. 

No spring wardrobe is complete without a nice pair of linen pants. These low-rise flare pants offer all of the benefits of classic linen pants, but are designed with your comfort in mind. The material feels as soft as a cloud on your skin, yet remains breathable and drapes perfectly. These pants can be a part of a matching set when worn with the crop tank top. The flare fit also offers a bit more structure to these pants, unlike your run-of-the-mill linen pants, which usually puddle at the ankle. 

This delicate top looks like it was pulled straight from Reformation or Doen’s website. The soft voile cotton button-up top is cropped and features a scoop neckline. The peplum top also features lace trim detailing at the neckline, arm openings, and hem. Because Gap thinks of everything, the elbow sleeves have hidden snaps at the shoulder to help prevent your bra strap from peeking out. 

These jeans look exactly like one of the many highly coveted pairs available at Reformation, but for about $100 less. Designed to fit you like your favorite pair of vintage jeans, these low-rise pants have an effortless, cool slouch silhouette. Made from 99 percent cotton, these soft jeans are designed to have a live-in feel.
