Stacy Stewart Smith Men's Golden Angels Hand-Painted Cotton Percale Dress Shirt
Stacy Stewart Smith Men's Golden Angels Hand-Painted Cotton Percale Dress Shirt
Description
Golden Angels © 2026 — a hand-painted dress shirt in metallic gold acrylic on premium 100% cotton percale. Each garment is an original work of art, painted entirely by Stacy Stewart Smith and signed by the designer. No two are identical. The subject matter is a tribute to innumerable blessings.
Available in Onyx (black ground) and Flint (white ground). Traditional convertible collar and cuffs. The shirt arrives beautifully boxed with a certificate of authenticity.
The hand-painting is executed throughout the garment — perhaps a million daubs of paint. Signs of the artist’s hand — residue beneath the cuffs, around buttons, on the reverse — are inherent to the work and part of its beauty. This is wearable art in the fullest sense.
Construction & Materials
Premium 100% cotton percale dress shirt, sourced new. All hand-painting is original by Stacy Stewart Smith, executed in the USA. The garment is made to order — painted especially for you in the size you select.

Care
Remove metal collar stays before laundering. Hand wash in cold water with a delicate detergent — do not soak longer than 15 minutes, do not wring. Hang dry away from direct sunlight. Do not machine wash, machine dry, dry clean, or press the painted surface. If pressing is needed, work from the reverse side only. To preserve the artwork, spot-clean only where possible: apply a solution of distilled water and gentle cleanser to the reverse side with a clean, colorless sponge. To eliminate odors, lightly mist the reverse with a 90/10 solution of distilled water and vodka; hang to dry.
The shirt will have a crisp hand before laundering. Both image and color will soften with time and cleaning — as with all wearable art. The garment may be worn, displayed, or framed.
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.
