A dress shirt is a classic garment, typically tailored from fine cotton, featuring a pointed or spread collar, long sleeves with cuffs that may fasten with buttons or cufflinks, and a button-down front. These shirts come in various colors, patterns (such as stripes or checks), and fits (like slim, regular, or tailored) to suit individual preferences. Often worn with suits or dress pants, dress shirts lend a polished and elegant look suitable for formal gatherings, professional settings, or sophisticated events. They are versatile wardrobe staples, adaptable for both formal and smart-casual occasions.
