I would recommend some sort of cotton knit because it's easy to work with and it's important for the neck-part.
*This project is aimed more toward people who have basic sewing skills with a machine
Sorry for not having actual pictures because I made this shirt before I even made an account XD
You can definitely take this basic form I've given you and add embellishments! You can use different fabrics, colors, etc! :D have fun being creative with this simple project! Good Luck!

- Tank Top Template
Steps (6 steps, 60 minutes)

1
in scale to your size, trace these patterns into your fabric, and cut them out (leaving a seam-allowance)
*a tank top pattern helps for pieces 1 & 2!*
1) back piece
2) front chest piece
3) front bottom half
4) neck piece (12 inches wide; the length equals the length of the tank top's neckline)

sew it to piece 2
(typo on the diagram!)
-
3
assemble new front piece (2&3) to back piece (1) like a regular tank top, leaving the neck and arm holes open
-
4
take piece 4 (the neck) and fold it in half hotdog-style
then fold it hamburger-style and sew the open end to make a fat, floppy, ring
*** this piece is now the collar of your shirt
-
5
sew the collar to the neck of the shirt; MAKE SURE the open end of the ring is getting sewed to the shirt and not the folded end

hem all unfinished ends, and you're FINISHED! :)
