Business Casual, the shirt for professional men, for executives

Elegance with versatility intact. Refined but never over the top. An informal approach but with formal style. This is a washed men’s shirt, a must-have for any type of occasion: from the work meeting to the business dinner, or an aperitif with colleagues and even a more unconventional social event.

Xacus has interpreted this style in its Business Casual collection: versatile items with a contemporary feel, but with the addition of vintage features that express the very best in the company’s tailoring traditions. A new range that is a candidate to provide the new classics in any man’s wardrobe. Ideal jacketless, or even with an unlined or deconstructed jacket, and with or without a tie, the Business Casual men’s shirt is all about the elegant, charismatic man with a great eye for detail.

The construction of these shirts reveals an expert craftsmanship that is best appreciated once worn. The insides of the collar and cuffs are soft and sit gently to give a feeling of natural, relaxed comfort. When fastened, the effect is elegant, while if left open, they convey a lightly informal sober style. The Australia mother-of-pearl buttons, attached with lily stitch, add to the edges of the shirt with their hint of shine.  The quarter sleeve has busted out seams, stitched by hand. This particular technique, which is typical of top-level tailoring, leaves the yoke free over the shoulders, making this men’s shirt even comfier and with an absolute perfect fit.

And the fabrics. Twill, linen, prints and flannels: the washed shirt is ideal with the classics of shirt making. Xacus offers wide, coloured stripes on a white background, like in the Riviera collection, or narrower stripes on soft light blue. There’s also room for gingham checks and more traditional designs, with an imperceptible pattern for the utmost in elegant style, worn with a navy blue suit with a slim cut.
