At the Cicada Club on July 3.
I would like some more pictures of it, if it is possible.
You can see a small photo of it at the far right ("3 o'clock") side of this link: http://www.amazondrygoods.com/collars/product.html
Some other collar styles are still in stock, though they're no longer being manufactured.
Darcy, in England, produces collars. They have traditional ones, and new washable ones. Don't know how they compare to these.
Charvet can fix you up.No one, it seems, can provide a proper, stiff bosom, button up the back, evening shirt.
It's not the collars that are problematical, but the shirts! No one, it seems, can provide a proper, stiff bosom, button up the back, evening shirt.
I would also recomend Alexander Kabbaz (who made backless formal shirts for Leonard Bernstein) but if Charvet's prices scare you............................I've no idea if Charvet would be of any use or not; generally I find their shirts to be no better than Budd or any of the other British bespoke shirt makers, while their prices are risible.
Intersting; I've never seen a back-buttoning shirt, although I used to haunt the vintage clothing shops regularl. I'd like to see a picture of one if anyone has one?
I really like back-buttoning bib front evening shirts. They are much less of as hassle to get a good home press in than bib fronts with front closures.
