Why this tuxedo shirt stands out
-
Giza cotton poplin. Egyptian Giza cotton has long, fine fibres. Woven as poplin it is crisp, smooth and opaque, with a clean bright white that looks sharp under a dinner jacket and in photographs.
-
A chevron pleated bib. Most tuxedo shirts use straight quarter-inch pleats. Our layered V pleats give the front depth and texture that stands out at a wedding without breaking black tie rules.
-
Black buttons, no studs needed. The black buttons give the look of tuxedo studs, already sewn on. Nothing to lose and nothing to fiddle with on the day.
-
French cuffs for your cufflinks. Double cuffs that show a little linen below the jacket sleeve, the finishing touch of formal wear.
-
Made to measure, not off the rack. Most tuxedo shirts come in collar and sleeve sizes only. Ours can be cut to your chest, waist, shoulders and length, so it does not balloon under a fitted jacket.
How to wear a white tuxedo shirt
For black tie, wear it with a black or midnight navy dinner jacket, a black bow tie, a cummerbund or waistcoat, and black patent or polished shoes. For a wedding, pair it with a tuxedo or a dark suit, a bow tie or slim black tie, and cufflinks that match the wedding colours. Grooms and groomsmen can order matching shirts, each made to his own size.
