Since the Gilded Age-and perhaps even before then-gentlemen worth their salt were required to wear a white dress shirt, a button-up with a collar and cuffs. Sure, you can be subversive and throw the rules out the window (don’t let anyone deter you from what you feel is right at the moment), but if you’re a stickler for tradition, you’re going to want to reach for this tried-and-true topper. There are occasions that require ’em, scenarios where you need to keep up appearances, ones with prescribed dress codes. Even in this period when men are wearing suits shirtless, flaunting their chests with abandon on the red carpet, the dress shirt is still the base of any formal fit.
Dress shirts are an art form, and we love to help you make your selection with precision.The white dress shirt: a staple, the foundation of any wardrobe. With your personal preference in mind, our salespeople will measure you and guide you to one of our three tailored shirt fits-Traditional (with classic, ample room), Tailored (to accentuate your build) or Slim (modern and form-fitting). A two-button barrel cuff is quite common, but some cuffs have rounded edges, while others have no button and are worn with cufflinks. To choose the best dress shirt, you need to know your cuffs as well. Choosing the right sleeve length avoids pulling or bunching. When a tailor crafts your dress shirt well, not only does the collar feel natural, but the sleeves also offer the perfect amount of room to afford easy movement. A dress shirt can feature a traditional collar or one that buttons down, but either collar must be carefully crafted to contour to the neck. And the careful eye will notice small but significant differences-from the style of the collar to the look of the cuff. Men’s dress shirts are offered in solid colors, stripes or subtle patterns. The tailor who crafts the best dress shirt does so with patience and skill, ensuring that both style and comfort are woven in from the beginning. For every well-crafted suit or sportcoat chosen in our stores, there’s a perfect dress shirt waiting to be discovered.
