THE SOFT POWER OF A SUMMER SHIRT

What the Well-Dressed Man Wears This Season

In the measured world of fine tailoring, the shirt remains the most intimate expression of taste—a private pleasure, worn close, felt more than seen.

This season, MICHEL’S BESPOKE reimagines shirting through the lens of understated luxury and relaxed confidence, drawing from the timeless codes of European summers, where simplicity makes the boldest statement.

THE RITUAL OF EVERYDAY ELEGANCE

True refinement isn’t reserved for events—it’s worn without occasion. Our Spring/Summer 2025 shirting leans into nonchalance: elevated, but never effortful.

From the luminous softness of Brighton Silk to the featherweight ease of Buckingham Cotton, Thomas Mason shirtings reflect a wardrobe built for quiet discernment.

These are shirts for men who dress with intention—an elegance experienced, not flaunted.

FOR DAYS THAT UNFOLD WITH INTENTION

For the man whose days drift from meetings to late lunches, from city streets to moonlit walks, our travel shirtings offer form and function in perfect harmony.

Cotton-linen blends in sun-washed tones resist wrinkles while inviting movement. Shirts that feel as though they’ve always been yours.

This is tailoring shaped with ease, yet finished with precision. Unfussy, but never unconsidered.

PATTERN FOR THE WELL-APPOINTED LIFE

With restraint as the foundation, pattern and personality find their rightful place.

THOMAS MASON’s Iconic Stripes return with renewed clarity—timeless yet quietly reimagined:

Regent: crisp blue-and-white or bold, unexpected pairings

Downing: classic vibrancy reinterpreted with modern subtlety

Mayfair: bright Bayadère stripes that echo the rhythm of the coast

Together, they speak to a man who understands that elegance and expression are not mutually exclusive.

For a sportier alternative, Durrants offers featherweight zephyrs in modern tartans and sorbet hues—British charm meets Riviera ease. Ideal for sun-drenched days, near or far.

OF CLOTH AND CHARACTER

From LORO PIANA comes a shirting collection that masters the art of subtlety. Whisper-light cottons and blends that endure rather than dazzle. They enhance the man, never overpower him.

Meanwhile, CARNET’s Narciso collection offers a touch of irreverence. Archival paisleys, frisky motifs, and offbeat florals are reimagined for the man who has seen trends pass and never lost his charisma.

The palette moves confidently through saturated blues and softened neutrals, punctuated by spirited prints and cheeky surprises.

THE COLOUR OF CHARISMA

LIBERTY’s Tana Lawn prints are for the collector’s eye—rich in heritage, hues sun-drenched and evocative.

This season’s Retold collection reads like a summer novel: deeply saturated, delicately structured, and charmingly expressive.

These are shirts for days with chilled wine and records that play past midnight.

THE PHILOSOPHY OF DRESSING WELL

At MICHEL'S BESPOKE, a shirt is never just about cloth and collar. It’s about wearing something that reflects the quiet assurance of a well-lived life.

Dressing well is not about seeking attention. It’s about making an impression. Crisp or relaxed, classic or expressive—each shirt is a private act of self-respect.

To discover the collection, we invite you to schedule a private appointment.
