The foundation of The 'Theorist' is rooted in the effortless, borrowed-from-the-boys appeal of a classic oversized shirt. But the details we incorporated are anything but common.
We integrated subtle belt loops along with side slits, then introduced our signature element: dual-contrast tie belts. These straps act as the architectural anchors of the shirt, giving you total control over its shape and expression. Double cuffs on a pleated short sleeve add a touch of sharp tailoring to a practical summer shirt, complete with a functional button system to hold the cuffs up.

Crafted from pure silk douppion, offering structured lightness, a delicate surface sheen, and woven with distinctive natural slubs.
Side-seam slits and minimalist belt loops accommodate two slender tie straps to transform the silhouette at will. Thread the ties through the slits to sculpt the oversized volume into a tapered waist, knot them neatly at the back for a streamlined profile, or tie them at the sides to let the ribbons trail with movement. Worn untied, the shirt hangs in an effortless, generous drape.
Relaxed, oversized fit.Â
Currently available in One Size. This relaxed piece is designed to accommodate sizes UK6 to 14, depending on your desired fit.
