Dada Banded Collar Shirt

An understated shirt crafted from lightweight Japanese cotton.

A Cross-Cultural Textile Narrative

The Dada Shirt, named affectionately after the South Asian term for grandfather, represents a masterful fusion of South Asian silhouettes with American workwear practicality. This unique garment begins with the traditional kurta silhouette - relaxed, straight-cut, and featuring the practical side slits (chāk) that have defined South Asian garments for centuries - while incorporating thoughtful Western construction techniques.

Meticulously constructed from premium Japanese Gingham (5 oz, 100% cotton) for exceptional drape and character. Finished with distinctive Italian Urea buttons featuring an artisanal distressed finish that complements the lightweight fabric. Rendered in these exceptional materials, the Dada Shirt creates a visual language that transcends geographical boundaries. This thoughtful material choice adds another layer to the garment's cross-cultural conversation, representing a harmonious blend of Eastern elegance and Western utility, heritage and innovation, tradition and modernity - a testament to our interconnected global textile traditions.
