A fabric with a chequered past, Madras check was a wardrobe staple for 1950s Ivy Leaguers, later becoming synonymous with affluence, recreation, and the wardrobes of preppy ad execs. Like most things pro-establishment, it was commandeered by the punks – usually in the form of loud blazers and “Indian plaid” stage shirts. In a richly colourful yarn dye and finished with a classic button-down collar, this Madras check short sleeve shirt in Light Smoke brings a modernist twist.
