This elegant and dramatic shirt is loosely fitted with billowing
sleeves gathered into elongated and thrice-buttoned cuffs, has an
extra-tall stand up collar which buttons at the center front opening
(with modesty placket underneath) which the body of the shirt gathers
into, and pleats at the shoulder yoke. The shirt and matching cravat
are made in a wonderfully gleaming vintage iridescent silver silk
dupioni. The buttons for the shirt are matching hand-covered silk
buttons.
The cravat is made from a double layer of silver silk dupioni to
coordinate with the shirt. During the Regency era, cravats were wrapped
around a high collar and tied according to personal
preference.
The Bastian Shirt is being shown here in one of the photos
being worn with a
Waistcoat available separately.
This one of a kind Bastian Shirt has a chest measurement of approx. 50"
(Keep in mind this is meant to be loose fitting, so it works best for
smaller sizes smaller than that. For instance, it is being shown on a
model with a 38" chest), and a neck/collar measurement of approx. 17
1/2".
