*A Note on Our Vintage Deadstock Shirts

These shirts are a genuine piece of fashion history. Discovered as untouched deadstock from the 1970s/1980s, they were originally crafted for iconic French luxury houses like Christian Dior and Yves Saint Laurent, using the exquisite, translucent cotton batiste that defined the era.

Each shirt is authentic, but they come with a unique story. You'll maybe notice a small number handwritten in pencil under the collar or hem. These are original factory markings from the atelier's quality control process. They indicate a tiny imperfection—often a slight irregularity in a seam—that was flagged for correction before final sale.

What makes them so special is just how minor these details are. I have decoded the meaning of the numbers and know where to look, yet in many cases, the so-called "flaw" is so subtle I can barely see it. For me, this only adds to their charm and authenticity. You are not buying a mass-produced item, but a piece of craft with a visible trace of the human hand that made it.

Please rest assured, these are the finest quality, never-worn shirts. They simply carry a secret, whispered from the factory floor.
