Here is beautiful NWT Barba Napoli shirt in 70% cotton/30% linen. This is a year-round shirt in a very pale acqua and white ground with thin navy and blue stripes. Lots of evident handwork on this shirt (look at the hand attached sleeves and the Neapolitan pleated sleevehead), thick Mother of Pearl buttons, side gussets... Armholes are high and the fit is relatively slim. It's tagged a size Medium (but it's a dress shirt with medium spread collar and removable stays) and measures 15.75" in the collar with 32.5" long sleeves (see measurements). It is brand new with the Harry Rosen tag and retail is $350+. Price is $110 including shipping in North America (overseas add $10)
Collar = 15.75"
Shoulders = 18.75"
Chest = 45"
Length (from bottom of collar) = 32"
Sleeves (from middle of the collar) = 32.5"
Sleeves (from shoulder seam) = 23.75"
Note the trademark Neapolitan sleevehead pleated and inserted into a smaller armhole - the famous spalla camicia.
