This garment reimagines the classic dress shirt through the lens of workwear and class. Constructed from remnants of a blue dress shirt, it fuses elements of both male and female tailoring while blending traditional white-collar aesthetics with utilitarian details.
Referencing insights from The Fashioned Body, it recalls a time when working-class dress was largely unisex, practical, and shared across genders. The result is a unisex shirt that resists conventional binaries and honors labor through form and function.
