details: the double button collar

i have a very nice 2-button collared dress shirt (black with gold diagonal pinstripe, in a stretch blended fabric) that is very unusual, which inspired me to go a-googling....apparently these are considered a (what else?) peculiarly italian conceit of clothing. and of course! who else but claudio seems to be on the ball. it's like the bloke reads my mind. if i win the big lottery he's going to dress me from now on, head to toe.



hawes and curtis have one similar to mine in cut - the lining is also interesting.
