We believe the single most important piece of the dress shirt is the collar.  Alan Flusser put it best “think of your face as portrait and your shirt collar as frame”.  The collar provides structure, support and balance to your beautiful mug. The real nuance is in different types of collars.

The stand and height of a tall collar can offer a dramatic look – as does this one pictured, Brummell’s Preferred.  A collar can also be the subtle reminder of a youthful spirit  – as do the rounded ones in Blue Monday and Jean-Pierre Pan.

We tend to disagree with Flusser’s belief that collar choice should be chosen in relation to one’s facial bone structure. Hogwash. Choose any collar you like; wear what makes you feel good!
