I like the white stuff ones but they may be a bit too casual

That italian stallion one is gorgeous-wonder if he'd wear the pink one ?

Went to fat face today and nothingl

All of DH's shirts are from Charles Tyrwhitt.

They are partic good IMO as they do a gorilla long-arm option, and slim-fit styles, plus a choice of cuff fastening (cuff-links or buttons), and (best of all) properly non-iron shirts. As in zero ironing. zip. zilch. And they feel lovely and soft.

TM Lewin much better quality that Charles Tyrwhitt ime, and have a great choice of styles and size (inc long arm). They normally have a special offer on, and last forever.

TM Lewin. They are the only work shirts that DH (tall and, um, well built) will buy now. We haven't bought the non iron ones (I buy the ladies shirts), but they iron beautifully anyway.

ggirl, I think so so far but have only bought from them since July this year so can't talk about how long things last. Dh thinks they're good quality too and their service is good.
