Stacy Stewart Smith Men's Poet Laureate Silk Dress Shirt with Detachable Jabot
Stacy Stewart Smith Men's Poet Laureate Silk Dress Shirt with Detachable Jabot
Description
Poet Laureate — a generously cut silk dress shirt with soft pleats, full-tucked sleeves, a crisp convertible collar with detachable neck jabot, and a samurai-inspired Kataginu shoulder. Romantic, dapper, and deliberately oversized in drape. Available in Flint, Silver, Brass, Espresso, and Onyx. The shirt coordinates beautifully with the Suede Pleated Windsor Pants, the Montmartre Faux Persian Lamb Coat, and pieces from the Tweed and Faux Persian Lamb collections.
White shell or gray pearl buttons. Underarm shields included. The shirt arrives beautifully boxed, made to order in New York City.
Fabrication
4-ply silk crepe, 40 m/m — a substantial, luminous fabric with a soft hand and full drape. Available in all five colorways.
Sizing
The Poet Laureate is generously oversized and not intended to fit closely to the body — this is intentional. The drape is part of the design. The sample is posed on a mannequin standing approximately 6’3”, wearing a size XL.
Size XL chest specification: approximately 56” in circumference. Your chest must measure no more than 46” to comfortably fit a size XL — though a larger size may be selected to enhance the romantic drape. Each size is approximately 2” smaller or larger in circumference; length is graded approximately 0.5” per size, HPS to hem.

Care
Stacy Stewart Smith offers made-to-order garments, fine art, and digital publications — each requiring different care. Please refer to the product description for care and handling instructions specific to your purchase. For garments: dry clean or spot clean unless otherwise noted; do not machine wash. For fine art: keep away from direct sunlight and humidity; handle with clean, dry hands or cotton gloves. For digital products and publications: no physical care required; download and archive your files upon receipt.
Design
Every Stacy Stewart Smith piece begins as a drawing and ends as a decision — a deliberate choice of textile, construction method, and proportion made by a single designer with five decades of practice. The same eye that composes a painting composes a coat: line, weight, negative space, and the relationship between form and the body that inhabits it. Garments are produced in New York City, one at a time, to the measurements and preferences of the individual client. No two pieces are identical. No production run exists. This is not manufacturing — it is making.
The atelier sources textiles for their hand, weight, and longevity. Sustainability here is not a campaign. It is the natural consequence of making only what is wanted, from materials chosen to last, by a craftsman who will not put his name on anything less.
