Product details
MotivMFG is headed by Samuel Wei, founder of Radiance Blue and the pioneer of the heritage market in China; and Daniel Gu, a third-generation tailor and designer. Together, they combine old-world tailoring (from various antique European manuals) with workwear production techniques. Constant research into garment production techniques from around the world inform their designs, with the goal of recreating, as opposed to just reproducing.
The Draughtsman Shirt is another of Motiv's outstanding shirt silhouettes, inspired by vintage workshirts from the turn of the century. The collar is cut slightly elongated, with an elegant taper and a single chest pocket. The fit is relaxed, with plenty of space to allow the garment to drape, and a swooping curved hem that can also be worn tucked in.
Motiv's Tussah Silk Broadcloth is an incredible fabric, sourced from one of the last remaining mills in China that exclusively produces tussah silk. Tussah silk is sometimes also called wild silk, being sourced from the cocoons of wild silk moths that live in forests throughout India and Southeast Asia, rather than cultivated from domesticated silk worms in a farm. Woven at a high density from irregular tussah yarns, the midnight silk broadcloth has a plush face with fluid drape and a gentle sheen.
The irregularity of the individually woven yarns an extremely textured, almost fuzzy exterior that's extremely comfortable on your skin. It's finished with a special washing treatment that allow you to machine wash the fabric whenever necessary, taking a lot of the hassle out of having a silk garment.
True to size with a relaxed fit. Machine wash cold on delicate cycle and hang dry.
