Liberty are the originals, and usually have a goodly selection

Acorn fabrics carries unmade cottons for shirts too

Re: floral shirts (of the tasteful variety)

Hmm, thank you. I much prefer the Acorn swatches to Liberty's current selection, but maybe that's because I'm looking for spring shirtings and Liberty only has its autumn offerings available now. Where might I go to get shirts made from Acorn fabric? I called CEGO, but the man I spoke to said he doesn't like using Acorn.

Can one attire a tweed suit with said floral shirt?

Paul Smith has some attractive RTW designs but they are, IMHO, over-priced but you could pick up a bargain in the sales.

Hermès have some rather attractive floral linen sport shirts in their current resort collection.

Hello Gents,

first post this, and as it happens was in London this week and went for a drink with the owners of Blaqua (off carnaby street) - their specialty is floral printed shirts so you may want to check them out

http://www.blaqua.net/home/home2.html

Not sure if that stye floats your boat but worth a look - also make a great bepoke range for suits.

Hope to visit more often.

Ciao

Claudio
