Simon Carter Multi Bird Stripe Shirt

The concept here is 'individualism'. Intensely coloured tiny birds disport themselves upon a standard issue sky blue and white striped ground. It's a mixture of formal and eccentric with, I think, the quirky side just winning. But it is also in line with a theme for this season - the juxtaposition of regular, measured elements with free organic ones. It is lined at the collar, cuffs and plaquet with a charming 'birds in cages' design featuring similar exotic species tucked up in old-fashioned ornamental coops. Single button - 'Jagger', cuff.
