The trouser poll was a success, so here is one for dress shirts. Count the ones you wear on occasion, or plan on wearing. For fun, state what percentage are french cuff!

There are about 25-30 shirts, but I only really wear about 3 of them. What should I do?Originally Posted by intent

You do realise that the proper definition of a dress shirt is one that is worn with white tie, don't you? It takes a stiff detachable collar with winged or imperial collar and has a bib at the front, traditionally plain but occasionally with of pique cloth. I can't say I have many in rotation. I don't exactly party every night.

Only two «full dress» shirts in rotation, but many, for lack of a better word, «office shirts». I voted >36; I'm sure that's accurate enough.
I don't wear french cuffs much, but I'm wearing them now (on an OTR H&H eagle stripe shirt), with silk knots.

Less than 12. Probably about 75% are french-cuff but the novelty has worn off and I will be getting mostly barrel-cuff in the future.

I have probably 20 or more shirts but only about 8-10 of them that I actually wear on a weekly basis.

I have over 50 dress shirts...of which 10 x white 10 x blue variants, 10 x duchamp style (loud and proud!) and the others a mixture of subtle stripes and checks... i actually do tend to wear most of them in rotation i like my shirts to feel as new as poss and so far all mine do. Apprx 80% are double cuff/french.
