Description
Unisex shirt with straight fit, soft collar and soft cuffs, cut from luscious 100% silk satin with GOTS organic certificate.
It features the ‘Koi II’ print which is based on an original ink painting, here on a gold brown background. You can see and read more about the design here (opens in new tab).
The shirt features thick mother-of-pearl buttons with three holes. The soft fabric drapes itself around the body, the sensation of silk satin on bare skin is inimitable.
The fabric is woven and printed in Italy, and the shirt is made to perfection in the EU (Czech Republic).
The pattern for this shirt is adapted from a classic men’s shirt and only lightly tailored in the waist. If you are unsure about your size, check your bust and hip measurements against the ones in the size chart.
(For women, if you prefer your shirt with a more tailored waist, I recommend bringing it to a good alterations place and having darts added to fit your body shape. This way it will probably fit much better than a ready made tailored style which is usually modelled on a ‘generic block’.)

A note about sustainability: The most sustainable thing one can do is to buy less. I always choose the best possible materials to create a beautiful and long-lasting product, intended to serve you well and bring joy for many years. This silk satin is a very high quality fabric which is also long lasting, and can even acquire a nice ‘patina’ when worn for many years – think of vintage silk gowns which ooze decadent glamour.
