Cutaway collar shirts are precisely what you should wear when you need to look sharp in the office and want to power dress. However, one of the great things about cutaway collar shirts is that they look wonderful worn unbuttoned sans tie, because of the way the collar is cut or tapered. This tapering helps to anchor the collar. By contrast, a straight point collar can end up looking untidy and clumsy with the collar points suspended above the clavicle area.

Much like the lapel of a jacket, the shirt collar is one of the most distinguishable elements of the men's garment, acting as a visual focal point whilst serving an undeniable functional purpose – the collar can be cut to widen or slim the appearance of man’s face, whilst simultaneously framing the necktie knot.

In a sea of standard business attire, this is a collar that catches the eye and makes a statement; it's assertive and sartorially confident. If you’re in the market for a dress shirt, you should consider the cutaway collar as your preferred choice. You will be amazed how easy it can be worn with a tie.
