Cut to Budd’s Tailored Fit, this is simple a very cool washed denim evening shirt and the inspiration of Matt Hranek. It is designed to look well-loved and completed with an inset, hand-pleated curved bib.  Each of the ½ “pleats is laid, placed and secured by expert members of Budd’s team.  Wear it dressed to the max with a bow tie and dress studs, or with a relaxed feel, open necked on its own below a dinner jacket or blazer.

The shirt is finished with Matt Hranek’s signature forward collar shape and cocktail cuffs.  Pair with dress studs or choose between the two, included button ribbons in smoked or classic mother of pearl. Budd was one of the first companies to develop the button ribbon for evening shirts and it is also a lifesaver when you forget your studs!

This exclusive denim has the look of a chambray, but benefits from the fact that only denim can  soften and fade fantastically with each wash. This is a shirt that will age and wear with you, gaining its own distinct patina or “rub”. Dyed in unique, 2 metre batches, no two shirts are the same.*

*For wearers of this shirt in a size 17 and over, two separate lengths of 2m cloths are used. This may result in a very  subtle variation between the shirt front and back.
