Workwear Shirts That Work as Hard as You Do

Not all shirts are created equal, and neither are the professions that wear them. Whether you’re drafting strategies in a boardroom, editing your next big screenplay, or brewing artisanal coffee, the right shirt can help you ace your role with style. Here’s a guide to finding the perfect shirt for your profession.

The Corporate Titan

When you’re making power moves, your shirt should reflect the same energy. A well-fitted white shirt is the Swiss Army knife of corporate dressing—formal enough for the boardroom but sharp enough to hold its own at after-work drinks. Pair it with a navy suit, a silk tie, and polished leather oxfords, and you’ll look like you closed the deal before even stepping into the meeting.

A crisp white shirt takes you from board meetings to off-duty meetings in style

The Creative Maverick

Creativity isn’t just in your ideas—it’s in your wardrobe too. Whether it’s abstract prints, bold florals, or quirky motifs, a statement shirt is your canvas of self-expression. Roll up your sleeves, and pair it with tailored trousers and suede loafers.

The Tech Wizard

For those long hours in front of screens (and those in-person meetings), comfort and versatility are key. A stretch cotton shirt is breathable, wrinkle-resistant, and tech-friendly. Stick to neutral tones like grey or blue to keep it understated, and pair it with dark chinos.

It’s the perfect outfit for commanding the floor or impressing guests at your signature wine dinner.
