A wool shirt, like the Collection Gabardine Shirt, really intrigued me and I wanted to see it IRL, not knowing what to expect.
It’s a button-down, short-sleeved, boxy shape. I ordered it in my Perfect Shirt size of 8 and the fit is good through the shoulders. I lightened the rest of the images so you could see the fit better but this is a true black shirt. The 6 would have been a better fit through the body but overall would have been small on me.
This feels like a blend of more wool than silk and not like a wool City Mini or No. 2 Pencil Skirt. The feel is like a twill but wool; just a touch rough but not uncomfortable. This shirt will keep you warm during the day. I was getting pretty warm just taking these pics, inside, standing under a ceiling fan.
Though I like the concept of this shirt it is a pass for me due to the color, boxy shape and warmth. I’d rather put on a Cashmere Tee to keep warm. I would consider this if it was offered in another color.
What are your thoughts on this Wool Shirt?
