✦ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What occasions is this shirt suitable for?
A: This shirt is versatile enough for a wide range of occasions — casual brunches, outdoor events, sundowners, art gallery openings, destination weddings (as a guest), and relaxed office environments with a smart-casual dress code. The embroidered badges elevate it beyond a standard linen shirt.

Q: Can I wear this shirt to a wedding or festive event?
A: Absolutely. Paired with well-fitted trousers and dress shoes, this shirt works beautifully as a guest outfit at daytime or outdoor weddings, mehendi functions, and festive gatherings where you want to look put-together without being overdressed.

Q: Is Irish linen suitable for Indian summers?
A: Yes — Irish linen is one of the most breathable natural fabrics available. It wicks moisture, allows airflow, and softens with each wash, making it ideal for warm and humid Indian climates.

Q: How does the fit work? Is this made-to-measure?
A: Yes, this shirt is custom-stitched to your measurements. Please refer to our size guide or reach out to us with your measurements for the best fit.

Q: How should I care for this linen shirt?
A: Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Lay flat or hang to dry. Iron on medium heat while slightly damp for a crisp finish. Avoid tumble drying to preserve the fabric's integrity.

Q: What does the color look like in person?
A: It's a warm, muted desert khaki — think sun-bleached sand with a slight golden undertone. It photographs beautifully in natural light and reads as a sophisticated neutral in person.
