At the turn of the 20th century, French textile production was defined by experimentation, durability, and an appreciation for fabric as both function and expression. Jacquard weaving allowed mills to introduce texture and pattern directly into the cloth, resulting in garments that carried depth and character without relying on print or embellishment. This shirt draws directly from that period, bridging early 1900s textile innovation with the refined workwear silhouettes that followed in the decades after.
The long point collar, popular in France during the 1930s, adds a distinct presence to the shirt—designed to sit naturally whether worn open or buttoned, and to age gracefully with wear. Together, fabric and form create a piece that feels grounded in history, yet entirely relevant today.
