Excitingly, this season welcomes a collection of white shirts designed by bespoke fashion designer Louise Kennedy in collaboration with the iconic London menswear company, Turnbull & Asser.
We are so excited to launch our new white cotton shirt collection crafted by the iconic British menswear company, Turnbull & Asser. These limited edition shirts embody femininity and elegance, a chic must-have for the holiday season
A chic addition to the A/W16 offering, this 4-piece collection of stunning white shirts marks the first foray of the gentleman’s brand into the world of womenswear since their establishment in 1885. After nearly two years of research and development Louise is thrilled to finally reveal the four shirts; the Louise with petite front ruffles, the Katharine with lace sleeve trim, the Lauren with lace border and finally the Yasmin with sleek shoulder cut-outs. Both the Louise and the Yasmin offer boyfriend silhouettes with added length, while Lauren and Katharine embody a more tailored cut and classic length with delicate lace details. This 4-piece collection, boasting a combination of newly developed stretch fabric and 100% cotton, is a powerful addition to the Louise Kennedy A/W16 collection.
Construction is precise with single needle stitching, non-fused collars, bias-cut yokes, side gusset and buttonholes that ensure that the buttons rest on the stitched cushion rather than the shirt fabric. These buttons, pressed from quality, ethically-sourced Australian deep shell mother of pearl are attached with a strong crossed-lock stitch to prevent them from ever detaching – talking points if nothing else.
The shirt collection is available now from Louise Kennedy London located at 9 West Halkin Street, Belgravia and Louise Kennedy Dublin from 56 Merrion Square and Brown Thomas. Available to purchase online at louisekennedy.com
