Viyella Check 2 Flap Open Shirt

DS-2717 Viyella Check 2 Flap Open Shirt

100% Cotton

Size 42 is sold out.

This two-flap open-collar shirt is a typical style from the 1950s and is made from cotton viyella material.

The fabric is made of yarn-dyed small checks and subtly brushed Viyella material, giving it a classic feel.

The shape is a Dry Bones classic, with a long point and two flap pockets. It is what is known as a "quintessential 1950s design."

However, it is actually made with great attention to detail...

This regular check pattern makes it easy to see, but when viewed from the front you can see that the pocket flaps are slightly raised outward.

The difference was only 5 mm compared to the 12 cm pocket width. By increasing this 5 mm, the man's build appeared to be more "simple and sturdy," which was the style of the time.

On the other hand, if the pocket flaps are completely horizontal, the outer edges will hang down when the garment is worn, making it look flimsy.

Similarly, the long-pointed collar is cut so that when the first button is open, the collar appears to rise slightly toward the shoulders. This helps to create a pattern that does not make the shoulders look sloping.

It's a typical, ordinary shirt from the 1950s, but in fact it contains the "secrets of men's clothing."

The classic brushed check pattern and subdued color scheme make this a stylish piece on its own, but it also makes a great inner layer for a jacket.
