Chambray in the Tasha Shirt Dress
Dobby cotton in the Kate Shirt Dress
High quality shirting poplin in the Laurie Shirt Dress
98% Cotton and 2% Elastane in the Josephine Shirt Dress
We have partnered with the one of the world’s leading cotton mills to provide all the fabric for the collection. The chambray, dobby weave, poplins and stretch cotton (with a tiny percentage of elastane) fabrics will get better and better.
ALEX BLACK COLLECTION spare button sewn into french seam of shirts and shirtdresses.
Double hem to give weight to the hemline helping to keep it straight. French seams on the inside of the shirts and dresses making them smooth to wear and making the integrity of the workmanship consistent. It’s just what you’d expect in a beautifully made shirt.
The ALEX BLACK shirt dress is as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside. We have used french seams throughout in order to achieve the most luxurious look and feel.
Bagged out hems are a feature of all the dresses – the extra weight in the double fabric ensures that the dresses hang nicely and the french seams ensure that the hem feels smooth against the wearer’s legs.
ALEX BLACK whip knot finished button detail
Whip knot finished buttons
All the buttons are whip knot finished – this means that they stand proud from the fabric and are sewn on to last.
We chose plastic buttons instead of mother of pearl buttons because these dresses will last for years and over time, mother of pearl buttons would crack in the washing machine. There’s a spare button, just in case, sewn into the lovely french seam.
All our shirts and shirt dresses come in their own twill envelope. No plastic, just natural products and the pouch comes in very handy for keeping your drawers tidy or for travel essentials.
Jewellery is packaged in small black pouches.
The ALEX BLACK shirt dresses are each delivered in their own white twill bag, while the jewellery is packaged in small black pouches.
