I don't think that any of these buttons are as worth noting as the french cuff buttondown that has not even scored one mention.Originally Posted by iammatt
If you can display it folded, we'll see it better and tell you how wrong it is. In the meantime, the hanging shirts just aren't doing it for me. There's something about photographs of crisply folded shirts that ones of hangers or laid flat just don't capture. They look sad, hanging there limp and lifeless as opposed to the proud and stiff folded shirts.

Nice collarOriginally Posted by jml90
Thanks. It's a one-piece collar with light interlining backing it up, which you can see showing through the shirt in that picture, to give it that roll and shape. The collar stays are also shapeable so you can make the collar points do different things like gullwing or curve in, as in the picture. I have another one made from a voile coming in a few weeks that's a pullover with flat hems (not worn tucked in), and I'll be curious to see how a much lighter fabric drapes and holds its shape in the collar. --Andre

That's what Kabbaz calls an Italian collar and charges $10,000 for.Originally Posted by Manton
It's worth twice that, since he makes the best shirts in the world.
(I heard that's what all Styleforum members think, so I guess I had better say it).

Medium spread. It looks more widespread folded up than it does when worn. But that's not a cutaway. Here it is worn:Originally Posted by Manton
What I like about Geneva (one of the many things) is, their collars are not standard. You can specify the front and back stand, and the point length, in 1/8" increments. And you can specify the collar spread to within five degrees.
I like the curve on the collar. Would you happen to know the Geneva interlining number you use?
