John Lewis & Partners Cotton Fitted Shirt, Pale Blue, 12

A twist on the classic collared shirt, we've softened this piece with waist darting details for a defined and feminine look, and we've added in a touche of stretch so comfort isn't compromised. The narrow concealed button placket offers a considered finish, bolstered by the neat turn-down collar, front pinstitching detail and back darts.

Wear it with tailored trousers and throw on one of our cashmere cardigans or our deep V-neck relaxed boucle sweater to add a relaxed accent to the look - it's as versatile as you need it to be.
