Antique cotton dress shirt is the negligee style, there is only a partial front opening and it just pulls over the head. It has a band neck for attaching the collar of your choice and a fully pleated bosom front. Front pleat below the opening and a pleat in the back. The shirt also has long shirttails, side gussets and barrel cuffs which require the use of cuff links. You will also need shirt studs as there are no buttons. Fabric is cotton.

Pictured shirt studs and cuff links are not included.
