The button down shirt for the Monday morning rush

Check price on Amazon Opens Amazon.com · affiliate link

A long sleeve button down shirt in 95% polyester and 5% spandex, cut full with a spread collar and a curved hem. The listing calls it soft, breathable and wrinkle free, with a little stretch, and it comes in sizes from Small to XX Large.

The fabric is 95% polyester and 5% spandex, which is a mostly synthetic blend with a small share of stretch. The listing describes it as soft, breathable and wrinkle free, with a silky drape, and says it is a full cut. Those are the seller’s words, and how silky or breathable it feels is a matter of taste rather than measurement. The listing does not state a fabric weight or any lining, so check the photos if you want to know how sheer it might be.

It has a spread collar, long sleeves with a single button cuff, and a curved hem. The listing suggests opening a button or two to make a v neckline, which gives you a second look from one shirt, closed for a meeting and open over a necklace. It is described as suitable for the office, school, everyday wear and any season. The listing does not give a length measurement, so the hem position is unknown.

Bust measurements are 37.8 inches in Small, 40.6 in Medium, 43.7 in Large, 47.6 in X Large and 51.6 in XX Large. Measure yourself against that chart before ordering, since the listing itself asks you to. Care is machine wash or hand wash at a low temperature, dark colors separately, and hang dry. It is imported. It also comes in red, coral and hot pink.
