A versatile shirt combining relaxed fit with eye-catching details.
It features striking screen printed collar and cuffs in patterns inspired by photographs of snow on heather and the dramatic cuffs, ruffs and lace collars of 16th and 17th century fashion.
A full sleeve shape with large pleats falling across the back shoulder blade completes the dynamic look.
The shirt is made of white linen/cotton mix from Amothreads, a supplier of deadstock – fabric that has been leftover or rejected by a manufacturer or mill. It combines the texture and drape of linen with the slightly fuller body of cotton.
The buttons are made of corozo, the nut of the Tagua palm tree. They are extremely strong and durable but ultimately biodegradable, unlike plastic buttons. They have a beautiful patina within them, from the grain of the nut. These buttons came from a supplier called Textile Garden.
