Fabric composition & quality

80% polyester – 20% viscose

At Chic & Modesty, each fabric is carefully selected based on the desired drape, the intended cut, and the look we want to achieve for each creation.

For our Essential shirt, we chose a blend of polyester and viscose to create a fabric with an elegant, fluid, and structured drape, which holds its shape beautifully throughout the day.

Polyester provides structure, resists creasing, and is easy to care for, while viscose adds softness and fluidity to the fabric.

A thoughtful choice, where every fiber matters, to offer you a shirt that is as elegant as it is practical, with beautiful finishes and a polished look for everyday wear.

Care instructions

To preserve the quality of the fabric and the beautiful drape of your Essentielle shirt, we recommend:

• Machine wash at a maximum of 30°C.
• Air drying: the fabric dries very quickly.
• Tumble drying is not recommended to preserve the fabric.
• Iron inside out at a medium temperature, if necessary.

Thanks to its wrinkle-resistant fabric and quick-drying properties, this shirt is particularly easy to care for on a daily basis.

Detailed description

Essential Long Shirt – Black

Some pieces naturally find their place in a wardrobe. Our black Essential shirt is one of them.

Understated, elegant, and easy to style, it was designed to meet a simple need: to have a beautiful, loose, comfortable, and polished shirt that can be worn both on a daily basis and for dressier occasions.

After being offered as part of a matching set, it is now available on its own, allowing you to wear it your way.

A thoughtful cut, without the unnecessary

We paid particular attention to the proportions and finishes.

Its loose cut offers a pleasant ease of movement without being excessively wide. Its collar with subtly rounded points gives it a unique identity while preserving its timeless look.

The sleeves have a balanced width. The rounded hem, which is longer at the back, and the side slits add movement and make it easy to pair with different pieces.

A beautiful everyday staple

Its fabric, made of polyester and viscose, has a polished drape and wrinkles very little. A practical quality that accompanies you through your day while maintaining an elegant look.

This material is particularly suitable for mid-season and autumn-winter.

The freedom to create your outfit

Paired with our loose L'Essentiel trousers, it creates a coordinated, understated, and refined silhouette. Paired with our pleated skirt, it offers another interpretation of the set.

For a more casual style, wear it with jeans. You can also leave it open over a dress, like a layering piece.

A timeless black shirt, designed to be worn again and again without ever losing its appeal.
