Description

Experience the perfect fusion of timeless elegance and contemporary style with this button-up shirt. Designed to offer a modern, moderately slim fit, this shirt incorporates all the classic details you love. Key features of this design include a slim collar with a collar stand, an optional chest pocket for added functionality, flat-felled seams, and a well-structured yoke. What sets this shirt apart is the thoughtfully designed button band, seamlessly integrated into the shirt front, making pattern matching for plaids and stripes a breeze.

The shirt's curved hem allows for versatile styling, whether you prefer it tucked in or worn loosely.

You can also choose between a centre back pleat for added comfort or long-shaped darts for a more tailored, fitted look. The Fairfield shirt pattern is available in regular sizing, suitable for slim to average figures, and includes a separate set of pieces specifically tailored to accommodate larger figures, ensuring a comfortable and flattering fit for all body types.
