The Six Shirts

A man’s wardrobe should be more than just stylish, it should be strategic. At Gangotra 1916, we understand that the right shirt isn’t just about fit or fabric, it’s about timing. Whether you’re stepping into a boardroom, attending a summer wedding or enjoying a crisp autumn evening, your shirt should rise to the occasion and reflect the season.

That’s why we created the Six Shirt Wardrobe Package, a curated collection of essential styles, each tailored to your exact measurements and designed to meet the demands of both your calendar and your climate.

Wearing linen in winter or flannel in summer disrupts the harmony of seasonal style. Dressing appropriately shows respect for the setting and elevates your presence.

Breathable fabrics like linen and chambray keep you cool in warmer months, while brushed cotton and flannel offer warmth and texture when temperatures drop.

From formal events to casual weekends, having the right shirt ensures you’re never underdressed or overdressed.

Each Made to Measure Shirt is crafted to your exact measurements, with full control over sleeve length, collar style, cuff type and finishing details. Choose from premium fabrics by Albini, Canclini and Thomas Mason and personalise with buttons and monogramming.

Whether you’re refreshing your seasonal wardrobe or investing in timeless staples, our Made to Measure Shirts are beautifully crafted to elevate your style with precision, comfort and enduring elegance.

1. The Classic White Dress Shirt

This is the undisputed cornerstone of a gentleman’s wardrobe. Typically crafted from high quality cotton poplin or broadcloth, it offers a smooth, crisp finish with a subtle sheen. The fabric is lightweight yet structured, making it ideal for layering under suits or wearing with a tie.

Clean lines, a structured collar often spread or cutaway and single or double cuffs depending on the formality.

Perfect for formal events, weddings, interviews, black tie affairs, but equally at home or in the boardroom. It pairs effortlessly with navy, charcoal or grey suits and can be dressed down with chinos and a blazer for a sharp casual look.

2. The Oxford Button Down

Made from Oxford cloth, a durable cotton fabric with a basket weave that gives it a slightly textured appearance. It’s thicker than poplin and softens beautifully over time.

Button down collar, chest pocket optional and often worn untucked or with rolled sleeves for a relaxed vibe.

Ideal for smart casual settings, think business casual offices, weekend brunches or informal dinners. It pairs well with jeans, chinos or under a lightweight jacket. It’s the shirt that bridges the gap between formal and laid back.

3. The Striped or Patterned Business Shirt

Usually made from cotton twill, poplin or pinpoint Oxford, these shirts feature subtle stripes, checks, or micro patterns that add visual interest without overwhelming the outfit.

Tailored fit, structured collar, point or spread and clean cuffs. Patterns are typically restrained to maintain professionalism.

Designed for the workplace, client meetings and business lunches. They pair beautifully with solid suits and add depth when worn under a blazer. Outside the office, they can be worn open collared with tailored trousers for a polished yet relaxed look.

4. The Linen Shirt

Crafted from pure linen or linen cotton blends, this shirt is prized for its breathability and natural texture. Linen has a slightly rumpled charm that speaks to effortless elegance.

Often features a softer collar, minimal structure and may come in pastel or earthy tones. Short sleeves are common in warmer climates.

A summer essential, perfect for holidays, garden parties or warm weather weddings. It pairs well with lightweight suits, linen trousers or even tailored shorts. It’s the shirt that says “relaxed sophistication.”

5. The Chambray or Denim Shirt

Chambray offers the visual depth of denim with a softer, more breathable feel, ideal for layering or standalone wear. Denim shirts, on the other hand, are heavier and more rugged.

Typically features a spread or button down collar, with options like contrast stitching or snap buttons for added character.

Ideal for casual Fridays, weekend outings or layering under a sport coat for a modern twist. It pairs well with chinos, corduroy or even layered over a T-shirt. It’s the shirt that adds edge without sacrificing refinement.

6. The Flannel or Brushed Cotton Shirt

Made from brushed cotton or wool blends, flannel shirts are soft, warm and often feature plaid or solid earthy tones. The fabric traps heat while remaining breathable.

Typically relaxed fit, with button cuffs and a slightly heavier weight. Can be styled with or without a pocket.

A winter staple perfect for layering under knitwear or wearing with wool trousers and boots. It’s ideal for countryside escapes, casual dinners or simply staying stylish in colder weather.
