Most Barba Shirt Collars Shaped like "Shark Fins"?

[jrd617]

Instead of being cut straight, they are slightly curved.

Is there a name for this shape of collar?

Barba

vs.

Borrelli (just an example)

I've heard it refered to as an italian collar, but not sure if thats the correct term

I don't really see why it should have a name...other makers apart from Barba have this too.

It's sort of a spread and angled-back gull wing collar.

The Barba shirt features a 'Cutaway' Collar and my compliments to Barba for getting it right. A meatier knot such as a full Windsor will compliment this collar. The other shirts have Spread collars.

I call it a neapolitan collar.

Four in hand, or double four in hand is your best friend with every type of collar.

Personally, I would find a single Four-In-Hand knot to be too small but a double FIH may work, yes.

I'm with you on that Barba shirts have cutaway collar. My definition of a neapolitan shirt collar is that they are slightly curved as TS mentioned.

Surely it's just a design which makes sure that the collar points stay under the revers?
