What styles of shirts do you have?

When it comes to shirt styles, it is nothing more than France, Italy, Britain and the United States.

French shirt

It is recognized as the most elegant and noble shirt. It is famous for its beautiful folding sleeves (also known as French sleeves) and cufflinks. Can be matched with formal dress and formal dress. Its collar is more than 8mm higher than the ordinary shirt, so as to ensure that the shirt collar is higher than the suit collar by a certain height. The tailoring of French shirts emphasizes close fitting without pleating on the back (the shirt is completely widened by tailoring), aiming at creating slender and elegant lines. Even for the sake of beauty, French shirts cut off the patch pocket on the left breast, which is extremely simple.

Italian shirt

It belongs to a kind of shirt with aristocratic temperament and romantic atmosphere in European traditional clothing. Mainly used to match formal clothes, it is one of the typical gentlemen's formal shirts. Milan sleeves, which are unique to Italian shirts, are not as popular as French sleeves, but because of their long history in the history of formal dress, they have become recognized as formal dress shirts together with French shirts, which is more romantic. In addition, Italian sleeves do not need cufflinks, and ordinary buttons are still used to fix the cuffs, which is another difference from French shirts.

British shirt

In terms of style, English shirts are the most familiar styles. Because most shirts on the market at present are born in the British style. However, due to the influence of American culture sweeping the world, many American styles have been added to popular shirt styles, so it is difficult to see English shirts that are really tailored.

American shirt

American shirts, like American suits, also take a loose route, with large sleeves and fat figure, and the tailoring does not pay attention to the figure curve. Comfort is the first factor. The collar of a standard American shirt has a collar button which is fastened on the collar of the visual center. Strictly speaking, an American shirt is not a formal shirt, nor is it elegant. They are more suitable for leisure or home clothes.
