PARISIENNE
Effortlessly stylish, this loose-fitting shirt features dropped armholes for a relaxed, casual drape and a box pleat at the back for complete ease of movement. Choose from 4 collar options: a classic shirt collar with collar stand, a stand-alone collar stand, or a collar-stand with ruffle (placed either above or below it). Finish your shirt with a straight or curved hem, and add optional patch pockets, with or without flaps. Combine your favourite details to create a shirt that's uniquely yours!
