Folded Up Shirt Appreciation

Amazingly, Charvet matched what must be very difficult patterns to match on this shirt -- the photo of the placket demonstrates. ... And with that, the day of the prodigal was over.
Nice. I especially like the rounded point collar. I have only two collars (plus RTW OCBDs). I once tried a third and hated it. Perhaps I will branch out when I order more shirts.

I actually kinda like that tie!

Under a sweater it would look sharp but I wouldn't want to show the whole thing at a time.

What about, say, a charcoal or brown 3-piece?

That Richard James seems to have very short cuffs.

Oops, I misread "double-button cuffs" as double cuffs.

The fit of this one is, as you can see, exquisite.

What style of collar is that?

ok, not exactly folded (shirt fresh out of the box) and this is a re-run of my "recent purchases" thread, but here is my contribution nonetheless:

Medium spread. It looks more widespread folded up than it does when worn. But that's not a cutaway. Here it is worn:

What I like about Geneva (one of the many things) is, their collars are not standard. You can specify the front and back stand, and the point length, in 1/8" increments. And you can specify the collar spread to within five degrees.

I don't like the tie clip. I like the shirt though.

Perhaps it's to do with the angle of the shot, but that tie knot looks atrocious.
