FAQs

What material is this shirt made from?

The shirt is crafted from a crisp cotton poplin woven fabric.

How should I style the pleated frill detailing?

The frill detailing is designed to be a statement. It can be worn tucked into bottoms to highlight the waist, or worn loose to allow the sculptural effect to cascade freely. It pairs well with both tailored trousers and casual denim.

What is the fit of the shirt?

The shirt has a regular fit, cut at approximately 70cm in length. It is designed to be versatile for tucking or wearing loosely.

Are the buttons real gold?

The buttons are gold-toned, providing a polished and refined finish.

Can I wear this shirt for formal occasions?

Yes, with its sophisticated detailing and crisp fabric, this shirt is suitable for smart occasions. It can be paired with tailored trousers and heels for an elegant look.

How do I ensure the frills maintain their structure?

Following the care instructions, especially regarding ironing, is key. Ironing on a medium heat setting and ensuring the fabric is properly pressed will help maintain the frills' sculptural form.

What washing temperature is recommended?

It is recommended to machine wash the shirt at 40°C (104°F).

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears wrinkled after washing.

Ensure the shirt is ironed on a medium heat setting as per care instructions. Consider tumble drying on a low heat setting before ironing to relax the fabric.

Pleated frills have lost their shape.

Carefully re-press the frills using a medium heat iron, potentially with steam, following the specific ironing instructions. For stubborn creases, professional dry cleaning might be beneficial.

Gold buttons appear tarnished.

Gently polish the gold-toned buttons with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.

Fabric feels stiff or less crisp.

Ensure the garment is not over-dried. Cotton poplin naturally has a crisp finish; repeated harsh washing or drying can alter this. Follow care instructions closely.
