The Donny Shirt is a boxy pull-on top that is designed to be a workhorse in your wardrobe. This relaxed, dartless top has a lapel collar and patch pocket. The Donny is a great everyday top that can be worn with practically anything. Pair it with jeans or a skirt, layer it over or under a dress – the sky’s the limit!
Suggested fabrics: The Donny Shirt is designed for woven fabrics. Any light to medium weight woven is suitable. If you choose a fabric like a mid-weight twill or denim, you will get a more structured top. If you choose a drapier fabric like a rayon challis or silk, you will get a blousier top.
