Amalfi Ocean Blue Stretch Pique Fabric

$150

Our signature Amalfi fabric with extra softness and stretch.

This piqué weave—woven just for us in Italy by the family-owned mill Grandi & Rubinelli—is what the Italians call “nido d’ape,” or “bee’s nest waffle.” It has a beautifully textured geometric structure that, along with its fine slub, subtle shine, and gentle drape, makes for a visually interesting and flattering shirt. The finish is incredibly soft, and with the addition of premium elastane this easy fabric becomes even more comfortable—perfect for both a weekend at the beach and year-round wear. This ocean blue shade is a versatile one that transitions easily between business casual and true casual wear. Try tucking it into linen trousers with espadrilles, or unbutton a couple of buttons, throw on some shorts, and hit the beach.

Recommended Styling: Stick with soft details. Try our Soft Roma Cutaway collar, no placket, and Soft Long One Button cuffs for a sprezzy and versatile shirt. Mother of Pearl buttons create an especially elevated look.

“Really beautiful casual shirt, I styled it with a soft cutaway collar and I think it would even look great at the beach. the fabric is quite thick, so be prepared to wear this one un-tucked if you are thinking of wearing it to the office etc.”
