Wolf-Rayet

Available at Seize Sur Vingt

Going-out shirts present a dilemma: sidle bar-ward in your office button-down and look like a cubicle escapee, or throw on a "club shirt", and look like a disco ball snuck into the matter transmogrifier with you. For sartorial dignity with a shot of Lothario: just-unveiled Wolf-Rayet.

Thrillist - Wolf-RayetDesigned by Seize Sur Vingt (famed for their decorously chic professional shirts), Wolfs infuse evening button-downs with a tasteful rakishness worthy of a Monaco card counter, or Richard Grieco post-unexpected royalty check. Since few woman want to be bedded by a cereal-boxed-shaped gentleman, Wolfs sport a slimming-yet-commanding combination of deltoid-embiggening curved yolks and non-pleated backs. They also feature subtly pleated shoulders -- racing-stripe-ish detailing that serves no function, but does suggest how quickly you can snatch an unattended drink. The entire collection's peppered with nuanced nattiness (e.g., collars/cuffs/plackets with triple-stitched, 9-gauge buttons), and uses only the finest Swiss cotton (not that the Swiss are known for this, but if they can create precision cuckoo clocks, they can probably handle a fluffy plant).

The Wolfs are divided into three basic models: classic, white-collared contrast, and steezy back-darted numbers so stylish, the only thing that could salt your game is your hook-up's terror upon finding that your apartment's dominated by what appears to be a humming, functional transmogrifier.
