The Shirt

Scavini also offers made-to-measure shirts.

Shirt Section

Scavini made-to-measure shirts are available in two levels of quality, designed to meet different expectations.

Grade A

Careful construction with fine French seams, mother-of-pearl buttons, and embroidered initials. The fabric choice is extensive, mainly cotton but also linen and blends.

Grade B

A higher level, incorporating numerous hand-finished details characteristic of the finest Italian shirts: hand-felled French seams, hand-stitched armholes and shoulders, and hand-sewn buttonholes.

As part of a tailoring appointment, we are pleased to offer these shirts as a complement — with embroidered initials included.

Configuration Options

The parameters of a shirt are simpler than those of a jacket or trousers, yet they still offer the opportunity to personalize your piece. The collar — in all its shapes and heights (short, medium, tall) — remains the most visible and versatile element.

Our experts guide you in defining these details to create a truly unique shirt. Discover a selection of options below.
