Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the longline cut?
The longline length falls approximately at the hip to upper thigh, depending on height. This creates a flattering, elongating silhouette that covers the hip area beautifully when worn loose and works well tucked or belted at the waist for a more defined look.
What are tab sleeves and how do they work?
Tab sleeves have a small button tab sewn onto the sleeve that allows you to roll the long sleeves to a preferred length and secure them neatly in place. This gives you full flexibility to adjust the sleeve length easily throughout the day without the sleeves unrolling.
Is this suitable for a work environment?
Yes — the classic shirt collar, clean stripe and refined construction make this a strong smart-casual work piece. Tuck into tailored trousers and add loafers or heels for a polished, professional result.
What occasions is this shirt suited for?
The Striped Longline Tab Sleeve Shirt is ideal for smart-casual work environments, casual days out, weekend occasions, dinners and any setting where you want to look elongated, polished and effortlessly well-dressed.
