    Hi all, Recently purchased this Eton dress shirt at the only half-decent store that I know of in this city and had it tailored there. I don't feel as if they did all that great of a job. Really considering returning it. Thoughts on the fit and maybe recommendations on where I can get clothes...

    Dress shirt collars can give off different ideas about people and can vary differently, from a Eton collar to a button-down. Recently, having come across Proper Cloth's plethora of collar options, I have thought about which one looks more appropriate and fitting for a headshot picture and/or...

    Hi all! New here, but have a question regarding some shirt studs which I've been thinking of purchasing. Does anyone know whether these are easily attachable to modern dress shirts (both those without buttons and those with removable buttons)? Any help would be appreciated. Also thought perhaps...

    Recently started revamping my closet with Brooks Brothers button up shirts. Seems the dress shirts in Regent fit fit really well (16.5 32 or 33). My problem lies with their sport shirts. Seems that the sleeves are very long and thus lead to bunching and pillowing of material down around the...

    I scored several high end shirts at saks off this weekend (brioni, charvet, isaia ...) and I’m looking to have the sleeves tailored. My question is how the sleeve length should fit when the cuffs are unbuttoned? 1” above the thumb/finger v? Also how much do you all pay for sleeve alteration? My...

    Where can a white dress shirt be found with the following features under $150? herringbone weave barrel cuffs point collar I checked CTShirts, Brooks Brothers, Kamakura, and even Eton with no luck. Why is this combination so hard to find - is it some kind of faux pas? I'm looking for a pointed...

    Hi, I bought a bunch of Milano non-iron dress shirts from Brooks Brothers. While not perfect, the fit is better than dozens of other brands I've tried on. Unfortunately, I sweat more in these shirts. I always wear an undershirt. Sweat passes through the undershirt and through the dress...

    I'm looking to add a workhorse dress shirt that I can wear very regularly to work, maybe around once a week. So I need it to be versatile in terms of color and pattern, and be reasonably conservative for business purpose. Right now, my most frequently worn dress shirts are, - Solid white - Solid...

    I'm in the financial services industry, where it's all suit and tie, and generally conservative when it comes to color, style, pattern, etc. Recently, I've been looking to add a shirt to my wardrobe that is a little more expressive, something that I can wear on weekends, maybe without a tie...

    Hi all, I have lived in warmer climates all my life and am wondering your opinions on the best cottons weaves for summer shirting. I am looking for the best (cotton) weave to meet the following criteria: 1. Breathability 2. Absorbency 3. Lightness Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! My...

    Hi, I'm after a specific style of dress shirt, which I can't seem to find among the traditional tailors in Jermyn Street, London. I would prefer sources in Europe, but if the US is the only choice, then that's fine. I say Europe because after customs, a shirt from the US will cost 20% more. I'm...

    Hello! I am looking for some insight on undershirts and dress shirts. My normal "go to" options I think need to be re-evaluated. For dress shirts, I have worn the Stafford "Essentials" fitted shirt (size 17 neck, 32/33 sleeve length) for about four years. Unfortunately, JCP has been sold...

    I'm a fairly newbie to the whole idea of having off the rack clothing tailored -- it's pretty life altering, right? Anyway, what specifically can a reputable tailor do to a dress shirt? I have a shirt that fits practically impeccable in the body but there is just a tad too much fabric above the...

    The White Dress Shirt Dilemma (WDSD) refers to the issue that many many white dress shirts suffer from, to wit, translucency. Affected white dress shirts pose a number of issues: they show ANY undershirt you're wearing (yes, even heather grey), they take on some of your skin tone which looks...

    I bought a black dress shirt for the first time today. Honestly, I'm not sure what pairs best with it--much less, what color trousers I should wear. Alternatively, what color trousers I should steer clear of. Do these look good or is the grey on grey bad? I plan on wearing these for teaching...

    I bought a dress shirt the other day with two pockets. Can I wear a tie with it? I'm not sure it works. In part, I find the two pockets distracting, though the color tie might be too loud. idk. Thoughts? (sorry for the low quality photo)

    So I've decided that I'm ready to make the jump to bespoke shirts. I'm tall and slender, so the proportions of ready-to-wear shirts just aren't right. Thomas Pink's slim fit was as close as I could get to a relatively good fit but the shirt quality was terrible and the longest sleeves for the...

    I am looking for a shirt maker/tailor in the DC area where I could have a custom shirt done made of acetate in a stripe pattern OR a place on the web that sells striped/multicolor acetate fabric I could take to a shirt maker/tailor in the area. I have already searched the web for acetate in...

    I see that BB polos are currently 3 for $119, but is there a better deal coming along soon? The current sale is equal to 33% off. I have the same question for their dress shirts as well. I'm not in real need for either of these immediately, so if I can wait a few months for the best deal, I'm...
