This is all cotton dress shirt with tails had contrast collar and cuffs. Arquimedes has gently redesigned the collar to a mao cut but kept the cuffs.

The contrast collar shirts are a throwback to a century ago, when men’s dress shirts came with detachable collars. Since men were usually squeezed into a vest and high-buttoning jacket for propriety’s sake, the collar was the most visible part of the shirt. With a detachable collar, the young man climbing the ladder could get by with one or two shirts a week, but still have a fresh and clean collar visible. Although they never went away they made a brief comeback in the late ‘80s thanks to the movie “Wall Street,” where Gordon Gekko wears them as part of his power look.

Fortnum & Masons was established in 1707 by Hugh Mason who operated from a tiny store in St James’s Market and from a spare room in his house.  The Fortnum family (William Fortnum was a prominent builder) arrived in London with a view to reinvigorate London after The Great Fire. He was also a Footman in Queen Anne’s household. It took on additional lines of goods in the 1920s, opening new departments featuring fashionable clothes and other products. It stopped selling cloths in the early 2000 to dedicate to its more popular food items.
