House of Sunny The Artist’s Way Shirt, £100

The classic white shirt has undergone something of a transformation this season. Take this deconstructed offering from House of Sunny’s latest collection as prime example. It may be cut from the usual crisp cotton but its asymmetric wrap-over construction and slashed oversized sleeves make for an architectural silhouette that could never be described as plain or predictable. Wear it as workwear or as part of a ‘jeans and a nice top’ combo to experience first-hand how minimalism can be just as effective as all-out maximalism.

Erdem Ophelia Vine Puff-Sleeve Collar Shirt, £545

Should you be on the lookout for a shirt with all the drama of an evening dress but the comfort and wearability of a classic button-up, call off the search. This one from British brand Erdem has it all. Tailored from crisp white cotton poplin for a relaxed fit, it features voluminous puffed sleeves and a romantic, inky blue floral print inspired by botanical Victorian wallpaper, pairing effortlessly with jeans, its matching skirt or virtually anything for that matter.

Acne Studios Stripe Button-Up Shirt, £270

If you’re currently building out a robust capsule wardrobe, one you’ll be able to style into an almost infinite array of outfits, then be sure to save some room for this boxy long-sleeve shirt by Scandi label Acne Studios. Putting a fresh, androgynous spin on a much-loved classic with its slouch silhouette and stripes in cooling tones of white and pastel blue, it’ll easily elevate any neutral outfit you have in mind. Or mix and match with other printed pieces, like a tonal floral dress, to strike the perfect clash.

Cecilie Bahnsen Andrea Cotton Shirt, £600

Proof that a white shirt needn’t be plain and predictable, this one by cult Scandinavian designer and Liberty newcomer Cecilie Bahnsen fuses the artistry of couture with the comfort of ready-to-wear. Full of whimsy, drama and everyday wearability, it promises to amp up your wardrobe this spring/summer. Cut from crisp cotton for an architectural silhouette, this shirt features an asymmetric peplum-hem, dropped shoulders and bow embellished blouson sleeves that capture the charm and romance of fashions from bygone years. Our advice? To keep things casual, couple with a wide-legged pair of jeans – the cut of the season. And on more formal occasions, wear some suit trousers and your favourite statement jewellery to reach the dizzy heights of sartorial elegance.
