FAQs
Is the fabric see-through?
While the shirt is high-quality cotton, white fabrics can vary in opacity; we recommend wearing a nude-colored undergarment for full coverage.
Can I tumble dry this shirt?
It is best to avoid tumble drying to prevent the cotton from shrinking or the seams from puckering over time.
How does the sizing run?
This shirt follows standard UK sizing; for a looser, more relaxed fit, some users may prefer to size up.
What is the best way to keep the shirt bright white?
Wash with like-colored items only and avoid mixing with dark colors that may bleed during the wash cycle.
Is this shirt suitable for formal events?
Yes, its classic, crisp look makes it an ideal base for formal layering, especially when paired with a tailored blazer.
Does the fabric stretch?
As it is made from cotton, it offers a natural feel with minimal stretch, providing a structured rather than clingy fit.
Troubleshooting
Stubborn wrinkles after washing
Lightly mist the shirt with water and use a steam iron on the appropriate cotton setting.
Fabric appearing dull over time
Ensure you are using a detergent formulated for whites and avoid overloading the washing machine.
Stains on the cuffs or collar
Pre-treat localized stains with a gentle stain remover before placing the item in the wash.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shirt maintains its structure and color, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid harsh bleaches to prevent yellowing of the white fabric.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the cotton fibers and prevent unwanted shrinkage from high-heat tumble dryers.
- Ironing: Iron while slightly damp or use a steam setting on your iron to smooth out wrinkles effectively.
- Storage: Hang the shirt on a contoured hanger to preserve the shape of the shoulders and collar between wears.
