VINTAGE IVY - Madras Check Button Down
YNGO234514
Regular price $140.00Madras Check Button Down
Designed in collaboration with illustrator Graham Marsh, the Vintage Ivy button-down shirt resembles what would be found on American college campuses in the 1960s. This one comes in a dark green Indian madras cloth that properly “bleeds” just like they did back then. The shorter three-inch collar offers two quintessential Ivy details: a back-button and locker loop. The shirt cuffs are pleated, and the six-button front uses real cream-colored takase shell buttons. An indispensable piece for any wardrobe, the Vintage Ivy model can be worn tucked-in on a night out and untucked for weekends at the park.

The fabric of this product is created from an archive of colors and patterns that were used in the 1960s. It was inspired by the colors and patterns worn by jazz musicians at that time. The India Madras fabric is woven from cotton from India and has a soft texture that is achieved through slow drying in the sun. As you wear it, it develops a bleeded look that shows its age beautifully. This Madras fabric is one of the few made in India that can be stylishly worn with wrinkles even after a single wash at home.
The origin of Madras check is Madras (now Chennai) in Southeast India. Madras is a port city facing the Bay of Bengal and is a major city on the south-eastern coast of India. It developed as a commercial and cultural center as a trading base of the British East India Company in the 17th century. At that time, cotton products exported from Madras brought great wealth to the thriving Britain. The fabric with the check pattern exported from Madras came to be called Madras check.
