The Teneriffe Sleeveless Shirt in Tea Tree print is tailored, feminine and quietly commanding.
An exaggerated collar frames the neckline with a nod to 1940s glamour, while a single gold pearl button adds a signature touch of luxury. Cut close to the body, it tucks beautifully or wears loose with effortless elegance.
This design was inspired by this photo of my late mother-in-law Joan Wacker.
I adore the elegance of 1940's dressing - an era of considered detail and exaggerated collars. It was also the decade when the Wacker family homestead stood proudly atop Teneriffe, Brisbane, overlooking a city alive with post-war glamour.
This shirt imagines the woman who might have worn something just like it — fashion-forward, poised, and entirely herself.
A tailored silhouette. A dramatic, exaggerated collar. A single gold pearl button as a quiet flourish.
