windowpane shirt.

This shirt is made from a vintage cotton and raffia curtain panel. The textile is an open weave Glen plaid check pattern and is semi sheer. It has a textured, soft drape. A perfect layering piece, this textile paired with the Italian collar silhouette calls for 1950s opulence. 

The silhouette is a departure from the ever popular camp collar shirt, more fitted across the shoulder with a slightly longer sleeve and self cuff. The Italian collar is simply just one continuous piece, rather than a collar with a lapel. I’m not saying you heard it here first, but the Italian collar is back. It’s been lurking quietly in the background since the late 1950s and deserves some show time. A classic silhouette that can formalize the simplest of textiles.
