Inspired by menswear shirting, this shirt is leisurely designed for an oversized shape in crisp cotton poplin with added stretch. The sleeves are extra long, the edges are simply top stitched and the front placket is concealed bar the visible top button for a clean finish.
A brand whose aesthetic has been so influential that it’s hard to remember what went before. But when COS launched in 2007 against a backdrop of fast, trend-led fashion, its focus on minimal pieces at accessible prices was a breakthrough moment. With a focus on style over trend, it heralded a new era for interesting, modern, considered design and changed our wardrobes for the better, forever.
