A band collar shirt based on a 1910s dress shirt found in New York City. At the time, white shirts (plain white dress shirts) were considered the epitome of elegance, and it was the status quo for wealthy people to own a certain number of shirts. For those who had only the minimum number of shirts on hand, detachable collars appeared. It became possible to wear white shirts by washing only the collar. In the 1910s, when three-dimensional patterns were the norm, the construction of this shirt is quite unusual. The shoulder line has no shoulder slope, and the sleeves are straight with armholes that are full at the sides. The pattern is formed with more straight lines than expected. This straight line pattern and the band collar collar in its lost state were incorporated directly into the design. The fabric is made of 100% American cotton (COTTON USA) with uneven yarn and produced on an old-style power loom.
