The Seneca Shirt
The Seneca shirt is a fresh take on a classic, featuring a cropped, boxy fit designed to hit between the natural waist and hip bone. A button-up front, and two-piece collar gives this shirt that well loved classic style. The dropped shoulders, generous elbow length sleeves and an inverted box pleat at the back come together to create a relaxed and super comfortable piece that is perfectly suited to both layering and standalone styling. Wear the sleeves as is or cuffed for a more effortless comfy chic look.
