We have dedicated our business to perfecting the ultimate business shirts for both men and women with the individual in mind.
Men's
We have carefully developed two specific shirt blocks to ensure a perfect fit for every body shape. Sizes are available from 37 to 46.
Business Fit
The classic ‘Business Fit’ shirt for men is a fuller cut that suits
most body shapes. This style has a front breast pocket and back side
pleats to enable extra movement through the back.
Fashion Fit
The ‘Fashion Fit’ shirt for men is slightly more tapered at the sides providing a neater and trimmer fit.
Slim Fit
The ‘Slim Fit’ shirt for men has narrower shoulders and is even more tapered at the sides providing a slim fit.
Women's
All our womens shirts are tailored in style. We have carefully
developed two specific shirt blocks to ensure a perfect fit for every
body shape. Sizes are available from 4 to 16.
Classic Fit
The ‘Classic Fit’ shirt is a tailored fitted shirt. The fit is slightly straighter through the waist, and a longer fit through the body.
Fashion Fit
The ‘Fashion Fit’ shirt is slightly more tapered through the waist and sits neatly on the hip.
Both fits work well tucked in or worn out over pants or a skirt.
Care
To ensure high longevity and best performance from your purchase always follow the care advice
Shirts
Normal machine wash on cold or warm cycle. Disperse washing powders/solutions evenly and commence washing immediately.
Wash similar colours together.
Never add bleach to coloured, striped or checked shirts.
For stubborn stains around collars and cuffs soak overnight in cold water.
Hang shirts immediately after washing or lie flat away from direct sunlight.
Do not tumble dry
Iron with hot steam iron while damp. The assistance of an ironing agent may also be useful. The collars and cuffs include quality fusibles and must be pressed carefully preferably with a protective cloth.
Silk Ties
Determining the quality of your silk tie
Prices normally relate to the quality of silk, (heavier silks are usually more expensive), quality of linings (synthetic or wool/ cotton), hand or machine made.
High volume machine made ties are less expensive and often consist of lightweight silks and synthetic linings. They don’t always sit flat, may twist and leave crush marks when the knot is removed.
A properly manufactured silk tie will be handmade (although not absolutely necessary), from rich quality silk fabric, wool/cotton linings and the latest textile designs and colours.
Wearing and removing your silk tie
The silk tie is a delicate accessory and should not be pulled or stretched.
When knotting your tie, be careful not to pull too hard and make a small, tight knot. It will be difficult to remove, possibly break a thread, leave unsightly crush marks and could damage the linings and the silk.
You may notice a looped thread towards the end of the “tail” where the tie has been “tied off”. Do not remove this thread as it is intended to provide elasticity and movement.
Ties should be rolled or hung after use. NEVER pull a loose thread or snag on a tie. These can be trimmed with sharp scissors.
Do not wet, rub or iron your tie. Marks are best removed by a qualified dry-cleaner, but always remember to request the tie be steam cleaned and never pressed.
Certain fabric constructions are more prone to “snagging” so be careful with sharp edges, rubbing, etc. It does not mean the fabric is faulty, it is simply a characteristic of the design.
