The Relaxed Fit Dress Shirt
The name says it all: the relaxed fit dress shirt is about casual style, putting comfort above conformity to form-fitting trends.
Without looking slovenly, a loose fitting shirt creates a buffer zone between skin and fabric. When done right it conveys an easygoing attitude, not unreliability.
The proliferation of slim and regular fit dress shirts has made it challenging to find a relaxed fit that doesn’t take the idea of relaxation a little too far; at least for the average guy. You’ll find no shortage of bold, boisterous prints in looser fits while shopping in store. And while larger than life might be just what you’re looking for, keep in mind that the proportions can still be out of whack. You will still benefit from a custom approach that takes your specific body type into account. By using your regular neck size and an appropriate shirt length you can do casual right.
Since casual usually means untucked, shirt length is one of the most critical factors in achieving that laissez-faire look. There are a few different guidelines for going untucked, but it still isn’t easy to hit the sweet spot between too low and too high. In the front, the shirt should never come down to the bottom of the crotch. However, you also want to avoid the cut-off look that comes from underestimating. That leaves an area about mid-crotch, which should also let you match up the bottom of your cuffs with the lowest point of the shirt.
