    DETAILS

    Classic stripes, reimagined with contemporary tailoring.

    The Elmira Shirt in Cinnamon Stripe by Karen By Simonsen offers a fresh interpretation of classic shirting with modern tailoring and thoughtful design details. Crafted from a crisp 55% polyester and 45% cotton blend, this elevated wardrobe staple combines structure with all-day comfort, making it a versatile piece you'll wear from workdays to weekends.

    The striking cinnamon stripe brings warmth and sophistication, while the asymmetric button-front closure gives the shirt a contemporary edge. A wrap-inspired waist detail gently defines the silhouette, creating a flattering shape without compromising on comfort. Finished with a sharp collar, long sleeves, and statement cuffs, the Elmira Shirt delivers a refined yet fashion-forward look.

    Style it with tailored trousers and loafers for a polished office outfit, tuck it into a midi skirt for an elevated lunch look, or wear it with relaxed denim and ankle boots for effortless everyday dressing. Its modern silhouette makes it equally suited to professional settings and casual occasions.
