Description
This period cut shirt is fashioned from crinkled black polyester, chosen to mimic the textured fabrics favored during the Tudor era. The collar presents a Tudor-style neck, a distinctive feature that frames the face with a modest yet structured silhouette. The shirt fastens with a dual hook & eye closure, a practical fastening method commonly used in undergarments and shirts of the time to secure a close fit beneath outer layers. Though constructed from modern materials, the cut and detailing strive to replicate the appearance and function of authentic Tudor shirts worn by men across various social ranks.
Fun fact: The Essex Historical Garb Shirt draws inspiration from garments uncovered in the Essex region, where shirts were often made with sturdy fabrics and practical closures to withstand the demands of daily labor and wear.
