Sous-Chemise Kaftan

The Sous-Chemise Kaftan is born of many references. Part under-vestment, part military tunic, part hot weather conquerer, this roomy shirt is just as comfortable worn under a suit jacket tucked into high-waisted jeans, as it is worn over a pair of the whitest speedos on any beach or city street of your choice.

Cut in a fine twill weave of a cotton / wool blend, it begins quite compact, and then develops a beautiful lofty openness as your relationship grows. The wool content and twill weave means it creases less, and it also means it's floaty and lightweight. Also genuinely warm in -10c and cool at +30c, contender for favourite fabric ever (how many times have I said that!)
