Some weeks ago I met Jamie Dundas who has started a business making linen shirts for men. Like many people starting a clothing business, his motivation was partly to improve what was already available. Tired of easily crushed, harsh and difficult to iron linen shirts, he felt he could do better.
And he has done so. I've been very comfortably wearing one of his shirts on the hottest days of this summer. It washes well and irons easily. The secret is a rather more robust linen than is usually used; one that is soft to the touch, yet cool and crisp. Jamie visited over 70 mills to find the right cloth with the right weave and richness of colour that he wanted.
He has also got the shape just right. The cut is slim without being extreme; ideal for a man of any age or shape; for the older man after an elegant and flattering shirt or for the younger after cool, comfortable smart-casual.
And linen is a fabric that, like a man over forty, looks best with a few worn-in wrinkles.

Jamie is a young entrepreneur with good designs and ideas. Keep an eye on him; his shirts have already reached the shoulders of royalty, household names and those in the know. For more information, or to buy, visit Dundas London.
Linen fabric is always better for clothes. It is made form natural resource. price of linen clothes are always high. but quality never compromise. Because of it's coolness it is most demanded clothe in summer.
