I am looking for a good quality classic white dress shirt that is slim fitting.

I am looking to spend around 150-200.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

If you aren't in a big hurry, and are prepared to go the eBay route, Jantzen Tailors will do you a custom-made white shirt for about $45. I ordered a herringbone white shirt from them recently and am quite happy with it. Make sure you get someone else to measure you before ordering, however.

What kind of collar/cuffs/placket/back style are you looking for? What type of fabric? This will help greatly.

For that money you can get a custom made. For ready to wear I think Hugo Boss fits quite nice.

I'm sorry but unless your torso looks like SpongeBob, it ain't going to fit. It's cut exactly like a square. It's also really short for the size and will never stay tucked in. The fabrics' worhtless too. And I'm talking about the "slim fit" version.

I'd go custom then. I've seen some great shirts made from Gianfranco Ferre fabric come out of my tailor.
