All our shirts use bespoke
tailoring, and are hand cut using paper patterns
which are kept on file for quick ordering.
We
have a selection of more than 150 fabrics
imported fabric from the world's
best mills, mainly Italian pure cottons two-ply
which are equally as fine as the Swiss and English
cottons.
Designs Matched
The fabric designs are matched exactly
at all points where the different parts of the shirt meet.
Buttons sewn with Crossed Lockstitch
Our buttons are cross-stitched onto
the shirt by hand to ensure that they are anchored as
firmly as possible.
20 Stitches to the Inch Sewing
All our shirts are sewn with 20
stitches to the inch. We, therefore, achieve fine, strong
and more elegant seams.
Single needle stitching
Our Men’s shirts are sewn
throughout using a single needle sewing machine not
dissimilar to that which you would use at home. This
is the traditional but a costly way of doing things.
It produces very fine but very strong seams.
Spare buttons
Each shirt comes with spare buttons.
Removable Collar Stiffeners
Collar stiffeners are included
to keep your collar flat and smooth. These should be
removed when washing and ironing the shirt, then replaced
to keep the shirt’s collar in prime condition.
A spare pair of collar stiffeners will be supplied free
of charge at SAINT-SENS.
Horizontal Bottom Button
Horizontal bottom button allows movement across your hips.
Two Piece Split Yoke
The Yoke across the shoulders
of our shirts can be constructed in two distinct halves
allowing them to come together at an angle thus replicating
the sloping nature of men’s shoulders. This creates
a perfectly smooth line across the shoulders, which
is not possible with a single piece of fabric.
