Hand-Made Shirts For Businessmen
When it comes to hand-made, bespoke shirts, quality and good impressions go hand-in-hand. And as a businessman, it’s important to look your best. However, when faced with the choice and benefits of hand-made shirts, what can you expect?
Firstly, a hand-made shirt can be tailored to your specifications. This means that you will have a shirt that looks right, fits well, and gives the best possible impression. It also means that you’re certain to stand out from the crowd, which is a unique quality, given our world of off-the-peg, mass-produced fashion.
Every aspect of your shirt can be specified to your needs. For example, you can choose from single or double cuffs – giving you the opportunity to create your own individual style for day-to-day wear, or even fancy evening events.
You can also get removable collar stiffeners for your hand-made collar, meaning that while you look smart and pristine for your board meetings, you can also take your tie off at the end of the day and still have a fitted but more casual look.
There is a wide selection of pure cotton fabrics that come with a hand-made shirt, all of which will be from renowned mills such as Tessitura Monti. You can opt for an Oxford weave or twill, and can even specify the stitches you’d like; something like a herringbone stitch may well finish off your bespoke look.
Apart from the obvious benefit of setting you apart from the next man, the advantages of a unique stitch equates to a finer detail that offers exactly what you want on each and every hand-made shirt you buy.
Plus, if you’ve ever bought an off-the-peg shirt from the high street, you’ve no doubt lost a button or two from everyday wear. Hand sewn buttons, on the other hand, are attached with care and attention, and won’t leave you a button short. Master shirt-makers will always make sure they’re sewn correctly, proving that perfection is in the finer details of a hand-made shirt.
And for a sophisticated seamless look, the pattern where the shirt is sewn together can be matched. This unique subtlety just cannot be achieved with an ‘off the shelf’ shirt.
When you think of how much care and detail goes into a hand-made bespoke shirt, you’d be forgiven for thinking that the price is going to break the bank. In actual fact you can buy a hand-made shirt for under £70.00 from places like Curtis and Dyer in London.
You don’t have to look hard to know that even off-the-peg shirts can exceed £70, some reaching the £100 mark, so there’s no reason why you shouldn’t go for quality every time.
While the origins of bespoke shirt making were strictly reserved for wealthy, aristocratic gentlemen, these days they are a possibility for virtually every budget. It seems that the highly pristine and tailored look is available to more people than ever before.
With fine shirt-makers providing such affordable men’s fashion, there seems little reason for trawling the high street looking for off-the-peg shirts that are on the whole a lot more expensive. Go for quality and you’re sure to make the best impression every time.

Can I sew a hand knit blanket to material?
I've knitted a baby blanket that I would like to line with a silky material. My plan is to hand sew the material to the blanket. Anyone have any experience with this?
I definitely support the hand sewing approach. Do wash both the blanket and the fabric before attaching them, and make sure both have the same washing requirements. The knit fabric will have more give than the silky fabric, so do lots of pinning before sewing. I would pin the corners first, then the half way points, then halfway between those pins, etc. until you have pins about every 2" around the edges. When you sew the yarn to the fabric, use stitches that both encompass the entire strand of yarn and stitches that split the yarn. You might also consider attaching the knitting to the fabric in other places as well, perhaps in some sort of quilted pattern since the stitches will show on the silky side. Otherwise, the knit fabric will slide against the silky fabric instead of the two pieces moving together as one. I don't recommend using any type of heat bonding material as it will show as stiff spots on the silky fabric.
