This Nehru-collar shirt is made from pure yellow linen. A hollingon classic, this linen fabric, prized by the luxury ready-to-wear sector, creases less than average. It is a heavyweight fabric – very durable and comfortable to wear in hot weather. Its beautiful yellow colour was conceived in Prato by Nicola and Stefano, both master colourists. This vibrant touch will brighten up your everyday life.
Designed shortly after the opening of the first shop in 1974, this shirt is the quintessential hollington classic. Worn on its own, with a waistcoat or a jacket, tucked in or left out, its straight cut adapts effortlessly to every style.
The back pleat gives you complete freedom of movement – or the freedom to do absolutely nothing. In short, it does the work for you.
Its Mao collar is a house signature. Slightly taller than a traditional version, it offers the same comfort and style, with just a touch more elegance.
At hollington, the button placket always ends at mid-body, so the shirt must be pulled over the head. A distinctive detail, certainly, but one that ensures, when seated, no fabric is pulled tight across the opening – sparing you from showing a midsection you'd rather keep to yourself.
As for the cuff placket, it features two buttons – a backup in case one pops off, as they always seem to do at the worst possible moment.
Last but not least, its two chest pockets: a practical bonus for those who like to keep a pen, phone, handkerchief, silk square, or any other essentials close at hand.
