Blue Fine-Stripe Shirt

This piece is part of The Essential Wardrobe, our weekly selection of timeless garments chosen for permanence, proportion and craft. It will be available for one week only, until the wardrobe rotates.

Certain patterns never lose their relevance. A fine stripe is one of them: discreet, refined, and always appropriate. This shirt is made to sit at the core of your wardrobe, quiet in presence but precise in every line.

Handmade entirely in Italy, the construction is disciplined and the finishing is clean. It’s built for regular wear and made to hold its shape over time. The cotton fabric brings together comfort and structure, so the shirt stays crisp without ever feeling stiff or restrictive.

The narrow blue stripe adds depth without drawing attention. It’s formal enough to wear with tailoring, but relaxed enough for everyday use. The proportions are balanced, and the collar is engineered to hold its shape consistently, whether you’re wearing it with a tie, under a jacket, or open at the neck.

The stripe alignment is precise across seams and pockets, which is one of those details you notice when a shirt is made properly. The cuffs are single button and understated, because a striped shirt doesn’t need complications. It’s designed to sit naturally under a jacket, but it works just as well on its own. The kind of shirt that belongs in rotation because it simply fits into your life, whichever direction the day takes.
