Product Insights

The Gexy Puff-Sleeve Striped Shirt from Vivienne Westwood is a recurring design that retains key construction details, offering sculptural puff sleeves—a Westwood hallmark—at a fraction of the cost of similar designer shirts. Its cropped hem (21 inches front, 18.5 inches back) and close fit via raglan sleeves and waist darts create a balanced silhouette, with vertical stripes offsetting sleeve volume. Designed to pair with high-rise trousers, the shirt features breathable poplin, a hidden placket, and classic stripes for versatile styling. Care requires machine washing at 30°C, air-drying, and ironing at 150°C with a pressing cloth.
