Fray

Our Fray edit focuses on sharp shirting with structure. You’ll find Italian-inspired collars that frame the face, considered plackets, and buttons set to sit clean under tailoring. Cotton constructions keep the profile precise while still working under a blazer or worn open over a tee. These are shirts that skew dressy but don’t feel rigid, designed to handle office, travel, and events without looking over-styled.

Pair Fray’s formal shirts with unstructured tailoring from popular brands like Jil Sander, Lemaire, or The Row, or contrast them with more directional pieces from labels like Marni and Maison Margiela. Each style is sourced from authorized stockists with full provenance, and pricing sits in the considered luxury space. For a quick comparison as you browse:

  • Italian collars for a longer, sharper neckline.
  • Cream and white palettes that work across wardrobes.
  • Fits that sit clean under suiting or knitwear.

FAQ

How do Fray shirts typically fit?
Fray shirts generally follow a tailored dress-shirt block with a clean torso and set-in shoulder. They are cut to sit smoothly under blazers without excess fabric. Check each product page for specific notes if a style runs slightly slimmer or more relaxed than standard.
Are Fray shirts office-appropriate or more casual?
Fray’s focus is formal and office-ready shirting that also works off-duty. The Italian collars and structured lines read polished with suiting, while the cleaner palettes can pair easily with denim or wide-leg trousers. You can move from client meetings to dinner without changing shirts.
How should I care for my Fray shirt?
Follow the care label on each shirt; most tailored cotton shirts respond best to gentle washing and a light press. Use a low to medium heat when ironing the collar and cuffs to keep edges sharp. Avoid aggressive spin cycles to maintain the drape and construction over time.
What size should I choose in Fray compared to other designers?
Order your usual designer shirting size as a starting point. Each product page lists the label size along with our notes if the cut runs lean in the chest, shoulders, or sleeves. If you sit between sizes or prefer more room, consider sizing up and using the detailed measurements as a guide.
Can I wear a Fray shirt without a tie and still look dressed?
Yes. The collar shapes and button placements on Fray shirts are designed to sit well open at the neck. The structure in the collar band and stand keeps the neckline clear and intentional, so the shirt reads considered whether you style it with a tie, under a jacket, or on its own.
