What size is suitable?
A well-fitting shirt must have the shoulder and sleeve junction at the exact junction between the shoulder blade and the arm.
There are 3 main shirt shapes: slim fit (tight), regular fit (moderately wide) and loose/relaxed fit (loose fit).
The slim fit shirt design brings slimness and sophistication to the wearer.
Meanwhile, the slim fit is more comfortable and suitable for most body shapes.
Loose-fitting shirts are for girls with personality and should be tucked in for a neat coordination when going out on the street.
