Three Button Gown Shirt Collar
“
Two buttons already looks bold and does make a statement, but recently I stumbled upon this Japanese tailor who makes three button collars (you can also design your own 3 button collared custom dress shirts at ShirtsMyWay.com).
I know I know, its not like it is completely out of this world, but the way they had done this makes it look really good. Great way to make an extra statement. Read what collars would suit you in our free FREE Mens Button Down Dress Shirt Guide.
The picture clearly shows that the inside collar contrast fabric is too bold, but it is the bold 3 button collar that should be emphasized. Dont forget that this is NOT a shirt collar for men with short necks (they will look even shorter with this shirt collar).

Regards, Tobias Jeff Collins, Professional Haberdasher on June 24th, 2008 7:45 pm It looks a little funny in the picture with the top button out of alignment.
The houndstooth on the inside of the collar looks nice. I have one shirt with a two button collar and it is a pretty cool look for a casual shirt. Three seems a bit over the top, sort of like the razor with 5 blades for a shave so close you have to regrow your epidermis.
I think what is really throwing me off in this picture is the fact that they are making a casual shirt out of a textured white broadcloth shirt. It seems a bit out of place. I would have to reserve final judgment for a shirt with color and perhaps a check pattern to get the full effect.
