Here is what you said…

White long sleeved t-shirts:

Arket, Uniqlo, Cos, Gap, Banana Republic & Petit Bateau.

White button down shirts:

Andiata, Polo Ralph Lauren, Gina Tricot, Tôteme, Aspesi, Pink, Esprit, van Laack, Gant, Pink, Massimo Dutti, Max Mara and tailored.

Some brands got more than one mention, especially Cos & Arket. Thank you for your answers, I very much appreciate them!

I have loved my Andiata white shirt but am also considering having one made at a tailor. I don’t know a women’s shirt tailor in Helsinki but then again why not make it at a men’s. I would assume they could make one a bit slimmer. I would love to have a shirt with my initial monogrammed on it.

For now I ordered a very good looking shirt from Massimo Dutti and they had plenty on choice in white button downs. I use one a lot and unofrtunately as much as I love a great quality shirt white clothes get a little worn out looking in use. So these were very reasonably priced for everyday use. Then I could use a tailored one for more special occasions, travels etc. I have worn a Brooks Brothers women’s shirt for years and years and I am hopeful that I get to stock up on a few of those soon too. They come with a cuff & cuff links so not a casual style per say. But the fit is superb and it’s a no iron fabric so it’s great for traveling or long days. I hope they still make the style although Brooks Brothers had a change of ownership.

Have a fresh day,
