I made a striped shirt based on the one worn by the character Jimmy (Robert De Niro) in the movie "Good Fellas."

The film is a Mafia movie directed by Martin Scorsese, and most of the people in the organization are of Italian descent.

Director Scorsese makes the setting clear by having all of his Italian characters wear long point collar shirts.

De Niro, who plays Jimmy, is not of Italian descent but of Irish descent, so he does not wear a shirt with a long point collar. He consistently wears shirts with classic, slightly curved collars. This has a strong influence on the entire story.

Jimmy, a friend of the main character Henry, was also a member of the New York Mafia. He is a smart, tough guy who is reliable among his friends.

However, in the story, they are not of Italian descent, so they cannot become mainstream. The boss, Polly, and his companions, Henry and Tommy, are all of Italian descent, so although their fabrics and colors are different, they all have the same collar style (a special long point collar). It is impressive how director Scorsese expresses the roles in the story through his costumes in this way.

This shirt is reproduced as worn by Jimmy in Dry Bones.

The front placket is supposed to extend all the way to the bottom, but we have intentionally made it shorter to give it a vintage feel.

Also, one thing we couldn't see in the movie was whether the suit had pockets or not. We decided to include pockets for the convenience of the wearer.

Also, while most of the characters symbolically wear double cuffs, De Niro's shirts are consistently single cuffed. This was probably the director's preference, so he stuck to the single cuffs.

The title of the movie, "Goodfellas," is a mafia slang term meaning "comrades within the same organization."

However, the fact that the collar type actually clearly divided the members' affiliations adds even more depth to the film.
