Useful tips on winter shirts
The shirt is this winter’s protagonist. In exceptional times like these and because the tie is waiting for better times, let’s turn our attention to this exceptional star of the new practical and elegant dressing.
The hot word flannel is no longer synonymous with thick, uncomfortable or too warm. High-quality shirting fabrics provide new, elegant textures, patterns and solid colours in the finest Super 150’s wool, cotton flannels or cotton and wool blends. The nice surprise is the addition of cotton and cashmere blends where comfort meets sophistication and price completes the good news, this being the noble fibre of the Orient.
Modern brushing techniques give typical winter fabrics that soft, warm suede feel, whether in twills, flannels or even the finest coutlé, rare, subtle and yet classic in plain or more daring prints.
As a great proposal for the casual season, the overshirt is the practical solution for everyday wear or an online meeting, as an alternative to the blazer. Heavyweight yet lightweight fabrics give the over shirt a relaxed, comfortable and elegant weekend look, every day.
With “the flannel” come marked patterns, classic plaids and dark, strong, solid colours that your tweed blazer and heavy cotton trousers will be grateful to have in the company of the genuine winter shirt. As they say in Her Majesty’s land: A perfect match.
Let flannel convert you this winter.
