Straight-cut shirt with stiff collar and button placket. Designed for seated work. Today it is worn in formal offices. At Jaulhac, Eugène Le Moult’s château, office shirts were used during daytime classification of specimens and at evening gatherings.

Work at Jaulhac was both scientific and cultural. Office-style shirts suited cataloguing tasks by day and shifted to salons by night, reflecting the dual purpose of the château.

We found the OFFICE-SHIRT in the wardrobe of dad's grand-dad, the WORLDS's №1 butterfly hunter
