I am thinking about ordering a white dress shirt from Jantzen. This will be worn under a dark navy blue ralph lauren suit. The outfit will be worn for a job interview. Does anybody have any recommendations as to which fabric to choose? How wrinkle resistant are their various white fabrics? With said fabric, how much should I add to account for shrinkage? Can their shirts be machine washed or are they dry clean only? Any other recommendations besides jantzen if I am willing to wait?

Make sure you have a backup plan. I ordered some plain dress shirts last spring for fall interviews, and I still haven't received anything, despite mailing him a couple times.
