Massimo Alba Genova Striped Cotton Shirt in Sky
Genova Striped Cotton Shirt in Sky
Every good wardrobe is built on a pale blue shirt, and this Genova has more character than most. Fine white stripes are woven into a lightweight cotton with a subtle crinkle, a white cotton bib shows at the open neck, and a small shield-shaped crest is embroidered in navy on the front. The pointed collar and regular fit keep the line neat enough for a jacket. Made in Italy. Available online with shipping throughout Australia and internationally, and in-store at Riada Concept in Woollahra, Sydney.
The fine stripe is at its best against navy. Beneath the CATCH2 Heavy Linen Single-Breasted Jacket in Midnight Blue with the matching ALACCIA shorts, the Genova completes a summer suit for an engagement party or a long lunch in the country.

How does the Genova striped shirt in Sky fit?
It has a regular, straight fit with a classic line rather than an oversized one, and it looks as good under a jacket as it does with the sleeves rolled and the hem worn loose.
What occasions suit a striped Genova shirt?
The fine stripe is smart enough for the office or for dinner beneath a jacket, and relaxed enough for shorts and loafers on a weekend away.
What should I wear with a pale blue striped shirt?
Plain trousers let the stripe speak: navy for a tonal look, or cream for something lighter. The Winch2 Cotton-Linen Panama Trousers in Champagne with suede loafers make a crisp warm-weather pairing.
Is the Massimo Alba Genova shirt available in other colours?
Yes. The Genova also comes in Tulip, a solid periwinkle blue in cotton voile. The collar is the same, and the Sky stripe is the more classic of the two.
