After Drake’s · Spring/Summer 2024
White Linen Camp Collar Long Sleeve Shirt
This is a long-sleeved camp-collar shirt in white linen, Drake's version of a shirt long associated with hot weather. It has an open collar, a plain front, a loose cut and a straight hem, and it is made in Somerset. The cloth is soft and light, and the straight hem lets it be worn untucked on warm days.

In Proper Cloth
White Washed Linen
We chose a bright white pure linen in a plain weave, which washes into the same soft, light character as the original. The collar is a soft one-piece collar that lies open like a camp collar. We matched the one-button barrel cuffs, straight hem and mother of pearl buttons. Proper Cloth's options led us to a French front in place of a sewn placket, rounded pockets with a flap and no button, and a split yoke.
A lightweight 14s single-ply linen in plain weave, in solid bright white, with an open, breathable structure and the slubby surface typical of linen. Each shirt is washed after sewing, so it feels soft and broken in from the start, with some puckering along the seams. Like any linen, it creases readily in wear.
