I'm planning on a few MTM shirts here in the next few days. I have my shirt measurement tweak pretty close to how I like it, but I'm hesitant on the collar style. I like the button down, and to be able to wear it with open collar; my dilemma is that I also like spread collars and I like to be able to wear them with ties as I prefer the tie with spread collar look over BD collars.

Anyways, I'm still trying to make up my mind here, but I'd like to hear what my fellow friends here on SF have to say on this. Thanks!

I do cutaway spread, but i also have a penchant for full windsor knots, which are not favored here.

button down to me is for a casual shirt.

I like a tall collar in general because I like how they look when worn with a suit with or without a tie.

So depending on the fabric of choice, I can go about selecting my collar style. Good thought.

Really depends on the shape of your face and your size/posture. Some collars look better on certain people than others. Ask your tailor and trust his instincts.

I never have spread collar with my Cuatom shirts

They are always either club or Itlain point collar with two button closure
