DUPION SILK SHIRT
Made from vintage silks, sourced from around Australia. Boxy, with dropped shoulders, shoulder darts and split side seams, finished with a camp-style collar and 6 vintage mother of pearl buttons. All seams are French or bound, and buttonholes are handbound. Dupion and shantung silks are quite structured, but will soften and naturally crease after wash and wear. This style is a slightly oversized fit, but it can be made smaller if you desire.
Jana (chest = 82cm) wears cobalt dupion and fuchsia shantung silk shirts, Antonia (chest = 93cm) wears jade dupion and black shantung silk shirts. Both wear size m (length = 63cm, width flat = 54cm, sleeve hem from neck = 48cm).
Made to order to fit your body
Please leave me a note during purchase with the size you normally wear (excellent) and/or chest and hip measurements (even better)
Allow 4-6 weeks for construction

If you desire this piece in a different fabric (e.g. a crisp cotton poplin, drapey linen, or sheer structured organza silk), please contact me. Sourcing the perfect fabric for a one-off piece is enjoyable and special.
