The Cotton Twill – Small lilac gingham

Shirt in cotton twill, small lilac gingham

A small lilac gingham, in a soft colour that livens up brown and green tweeds. With a double-breasted Prince of Wales check jacket and a purple tie with stags, it takes on a country air.

The pattern: A gingham in very small checks, purple and white, regular and closely spaced. Up close, the purple is pure; from a distance, it blends with the white and the shirt looks lilac.

The cloth: Two-fold cotton twill, with a fine diagonal, for a shirt you will keep for years.

The collar: Italian collar, widely spread, which sets off the face and the tie.

The cuffs: Single cuffs with two buttons.

The cut: Classic fit, neither slim nor loose, for comfort and a flattering silhouette.
