Gents, I could use some consensus:
What exactly is the proper placement of button holes for a two-button collar?
I just received my first shirts from an online MTM tailor. Both were ordered with the same two-button, wide-spread collar.
To my surprise, the button holes are placed differently. For the blue shirt, the upper button hole is closest to the seam; whereas on the black-check shirt the lower button hole is closest.
Moreover, the buttons on the blue shirt are the same distance from their respective holes; however, the lower button on the black shirt is an additional 1 cm or 0.5 inch from its hole.
All of this is instantly discernable from the following picture:
