The principle of polycotton poplin fabric is simple. When another fibre is woven in with the cotton, you benefit from the properties of both fibres. In this case, the polyester adds extra resistance.

The collar is the most distinguishing and fashion sensitive feature of a shirt. All B&C shirt collars are made of 3 layers to help them keep their shape: 2 layers of fabric and between them an interlining. This is one of B&C’s criteria for excellence. So are the non-removable bones integrated in the collar to ensure you never lose them. In terms of shapes, there are zillions of collars and you can easily get confused by the choice. However, only a few are right. Discover them in the B&C collars section. 3 CUFFS

Stitches must be discreet and fine. To appreciate the fineness of it, you have to count the number of stitches per centimeter. The more you have the better it is. The B&C shirts boast 6 stitches per centimeter, as you cannot

lows this code of elegance and improves durability by choosing high quality polyester mother-of-pearl buttons. They are intensively wash resistant, making B&C shirts not just stylish but also fit for everyday wear. B&C respects a second essential rule of quality for buttons. If you look at their stitches, you’ll see they are cross-stitched. In addition to enhancing the perceived quality of your shirt, it ensures you will never lose a button.

THERE ARE SEVERAL SIGNS OF A QUALIT Y

One more rule to recognising a high-quality shirt. The last buttonhole is sewn horizontally. Because horizontal buttonholes take horizontal stress without deforming they therefore offer a reduced likelihood of the button pulling out.

Cuffs are one of the key features in determining not details that make the difference only how dressy a shirt is, but also in helping establish personal style.

STYLISH TIPS |

| STYLISH TIPS

S H I RT

TIP

It’s always possible to add colour to a professional outfit without flouting convention. Wear coloured socks, plain or patterned and you’ll immediately make a statement. Ties come next, in stripes, spots or gingham checks and that’s before you add a pocket square in a contrasting colour. An eye-catching watchstrap will also do the trick.

TIPS

TIP

You need something in your look that stands out from the crowd. Could be a belt buckle, could be a pocket square, could be a necktie or could be just a good fit. The point is: details make a big difference. Here’s how to do it well, without overdoing it.

TIP

HOW TO ROLL A SHIRT?

100.

When you travel on business, you want to make sure your shirt gets to your destination in pristine condition, whilst taking up minimum packing space. Roll your shirt to travel light and arrive in style.

TIP

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR TIES?

When you take off your tie, roll it loosely and store it this way overnight, before transferring it to a hanger or somewhere it can hang. Knitted ties should always be stored rolled-up.

TIP

HOW TO ROLL YOUR SHIRT SLEEVES?

THE CASUAL FOREARM ROLL:

THE ITALIAN ROLL:

Best for: casual dress, layers Benefits: involves least folding, easiest to unroll without wrinkles

Best for: rolling sleeve with style, showing off cuffs, with inner contrasting colour Benefits: easy to adjust and unfold

Step 1: Unbutton cuff. Undo gauntlet buttons. Flip cuff back and inside out.

Step 2: Fold over once, hiding cuff behind band of sleeve fabric.

Step 2: Pull flipped cuff all the way to just below the elbow without folding, turning sleeve inside out as it goes.

Step 3: Stop there and tuck corners of cuff in neatly

Step 3: Take bottom of inside out portion and fold it up until it traps the bottom of the cuff. Show as much of the inside-out cuff as you like.

HOW DO I CHOOSE A COLOUR FOR A POCKET SQUARE? There’s nothing wrong with white, it goes with everything. Beyond that, the choice can get tricky as your pocket square should not match with anything else you are wearing, but the contrast needs to be a happy one. This can really present a challenge if your jacket, shirt and tie are already contrasting. Bringing in a fourth colour is only for the really confident dresser!

TIP

TO WEAR OR NOT TO WEAR A HAT?

For the sartorially adventurous, the hat is an opportunity to develop their personal style, the key is striking a contrast with the rest of your outfit. If you’re wearing something quite smart, or casual and you add a traditional style– a trilby or a fedora for instance – it will immediately make your overall look quite formal. If you pair a hat with something it would never have gone with traditionally, you can achieve a great look.

FABRICS Appearance, comfort, ease of care

A shirt is in direct contact with your skin for more than 8 hours every day; this is why we can’t compromise on quality. Choosing the finest fabric is the starting point of what makes our shirts special. We have meticulously and carefully selected 5 fabrics to support the creation of highly qualitative and contemporary shirts. Our unique objective is to “enhance wearer self-confidence” triggered by perfect appearance, comfort and everyday ease of care*.

FABRICS

Oxford fabric is one of the most popular fabrics for corporate shirts. Oxford is an emblematic fabric thanks to its honeycomb construction, where warp and weft threads cross each other in pairs. Made of 70% cotton and 30% polyester, this cotton rich blend makes the B&C Oxford shirt a perfect combination of quality, comfort and durability.

The twill is one of the basic weaves easy to identify thanks to its diagonal lines. B&C Twill fabric made of 100% combed cotton is very resistant even though it’s pure cotton. This is thanks to the fabric’s construction. To add more comfort and softness, B&C offers a peached soft-to-touch finish. The result: shirts are qualitative, durable and highly comfortable.

The principle: a fine yarn running one way with a thicker one interweaving it. The B&C poplin made of 100% cotton has a fine quality bringing pure elegance to the B&C shirts.

The principle is simple: when another fibre is woven in with the cotton, you benefit from the properties of both fibres. Here the polyester will bring both durability and resistance. Made of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, this blend makes the B&C shirts wrinkle resistant, durable and gives them strong colour fastness.

B&C poplin cotton elastane is made of 97% combed cotton and 3% elastane, creating stretch. This specific combination allows B&C to create a line of shirts with more fitted cuts without compromising comfort.

"None of us is as smart as all of us" w

As already mentioned, B&C shirts have been constructed with the attention to detail that you would expect from bespoke tailoring. The B&C Smart shirt is no exception to this rule: it has a modern fit, quality detailing and a well balanced polycotton composition. Its perfect blend of combed cotton and soft polyester brings comfort, softness and enhanced durability. The B&C Smart shirt is intensively wash-resistant and easy to maintain thanks to its easy care treatment. Be smart, thanks to this double advantage (style and resistance), it delivers absolute self-confidence to the wearer.

HOW TO RECOGNISE THE B&C SMART SHIRT? › Cut-away collar › A ngular cuffs & square-shaped gauntlets* › E asy care › Washable at 50°C 50

* Thinner gauntlets for her

The principle of polycotton poplin fabric is simple. When another fibre is woven in with the cotton, you benefit from the properties of both fibres. In this case, the polyester adds extra resistance.
