Creating Your Own Trend in Shirts
Finding a shirt that you like, which either isn’t going to be the same as everyone else is wearing, or the same as you wear every day, can be hard. The options available for men are quite limited, so what are you to do if you want to be slightly different, but don’t want to pay a fortune to have it specially designed for you?
You could, of course, search in some of those small, out of the way shops that only seem to sell two or three items a month. They may have a design that caters for your tastes, while still being acceptable in a corporate setting, but the chances are they are filled with the winter season of a struggling designer, who left the industry some years earlier.
So, what do you do next?
Most men will give in at that stage and opt for something other than custom tailored dress shirts– perhaps a slightly lighter shade of blue from what you already wear? Maybe you’ll have a marginally less transparent white shirt for winter than you would for summer? If you shop in the regular high street chain stores, rather than have mens shirts fitted, then that could be about as far as your choices go.
So, what do you do if you are a little bit more adventurous, but don’t want to stretch the bounds of convention too far?
For most of us, having the time and money to have men’s shirts fitted isn’t going to be possible, even if we did have a tailor nearby who could do it for us; but what if you could have it done online, to a design that is (mostly) of your own creating, and for much less than you would expect to pay to have even the cheapest of tailors make it for you? There is such a place.
At Deo Veritas you not only get to choose the color of your new shirt, you have the final say on: the length of the sleeves, and whether those sleeves will be rounded at the ends, or have an angular design, and even the number of buttons you want on them. You can choose the pattern of the material that you think will work well with your color choice. You get to decide on the kind of collar that you’d like; if you want a breast pocket; and a number of other little ‘tweaks’ to fine tune your new work/dress shirt.
If you want to add the ultimate touch, to let people know that this is a one-off creation, personal to you, then why not have your monogram embroidered on it? The only things that you are missing now are the designer label (your monogram?), the expensive price tag, the catwalk, and, of course, the very tall and glamorous stick thin models, to go with it – but you may have one of those at home anyway.
As you can see, if you would like custom tailored dress shirts, and either want to create them from the comfort of your own home – or even take some time out from your lunch break (far quicker and easier than journeying down to the local shopping center) – then all you need to remember is the name: Deo Veritas.
