The Essential Guide to Spring Shirts

The Essential Guide to Spring Shirts

Despite the increasingly casual nature of our collectie wardrobes, shirts still form the integral backbone of our wardrobes, being the glue that helps us combine trousers and jacket combinations. At Oliver Spencer, our shirts carry a distinctly relaxed edge, with soft rolled collars and organic cotton fabrics creating a more laid back tailored silhouette, as opposed to stiff business shirts. This season, we've created a very sustainable collection that ticks just about every style box there is. From dressed-down weekend shirts to blue-collar inspired workwear shapes, this collection is full of dependable styles that will elevate your Spring wardrobe and help to create myriad new fit combinations in your wardrobe...

Casual Office Shirts 

Zooming from home or actually plying your trade from an office (remember those?), these are the shirts that will give you that professional edge for a modern workplace. Constructed with soft spear collars rather than the stiff collars of formal business shirts, Oliver Spencer's Clerkenwell tab shirts and the New York Special shirts both offer great style and versatility in the office or if you're taking calls when working from home. Cut in a variety of super soft organic cotton fabrics, the Clerkenwell offers a minimalistic neck fastening for a clean look, while the New York Special has more of a classic finish easily paired with knitwear such as a crew neck or relaxed tailoring.

Utility shirts

Born from functionality, utility shirts have evolved into workwear classics to form an integral part of the modern wardrobe. At the forefront of our collection is the second iteration of the Niwaki collection, which features a number of rugged shirt styles. Although they have been expressly designed with gardening in mind, these shirts double-up as stunning pieces of workwear, constructed from beautiful indigo-dyed organic cotton. We also have the Treviscoe shirt, which functions more like a lightweight overshirt for the spring and summer, cut from both linen and organic cotton.

Weekend shirts

You can never have enough easy-breezy super soft shirt styles for casual weekend fits. They are the glue of your wardrobe looks, bringing together your jackets and trousers in myriad combinations, with the ability to dress up or down a look depending upon the shirt. This season, we've got a tonne of styles that fit the category perfectly, most notably our button-down Brook shirt. The button-down collar was original devised for British soldiers playing polo in India, but has now become the de facto aesthetic for casual shirting thanks to the soft rolled collar. . Of course, no weekend wardrobe could be without the iconic grandad collar. It has long been a part of Oliver Spencer collections because it is so wearable and this season we've cut it in a host of clean neutral tones.

Short Sleeve Shirts

With warmer climes just around the corner (it's a long corner, ok?), our spring/summer collection of short sleeve shirts is primed and ready. We've expanded the offering this year, incorporating a proverbial tonne of organic cotton and linen styles. We've updated the perfectly summery Havana shirt with its iconic Cuban collar in a number of new fabrics, as well as broadening the already eclectic Riviera shirt style in some beautifully soft and slubby linen fabrics. We've also used some exceptional textured jersey to create soft sporty versions of the Riviera shirt, which make for really great resortwear pieces.
