A Touch of the Purple

Exploring the Purple Label difference in six shirt styles.

Down for It
The Pinpoint Oxford
The elevated approach of Purple Label carries over to every style the line produces—even something as seemingly simple as a pinpoint oxford shirt. In this case, it is made with a custom-developed Italian cotton whose 120/2 yarn count is far finer than a typical pinpoint and softened by a proprietary finish that gives it a lived-in texture. The slightly elongated points of its button-down collar achieve that much sought-after perfect roll, a highly desirable detail whether it’s worn open with casual outerwear and denim or with impeccable tailoring and a four-in-hand tie knot.

Flax of Life
The Linen Shirt
A calling card of Purple Label’s distinctive way of doing things, our 100 percent linen shirt is piece-dyed—meaning that its fabric has been dyed following the weaving process—in order to achieve that uniquely Ralph range of colors. The natural breathability and moisture-wicking qualities of linen coupled with a finishing process that further softens its hand, makes for a casual yet stylish shirt of instant comfort, dressed up or down. Its more structured one-piece collar has the staying power to be worn with a blazer and white denim as part of a polished, off-duty look, yet it’s equally capable of being worn with swim trunks and espadrilles by the pool.

In the Wash
The Chambray Shirt
A true study in versatility, Purple Label’s washed chambray shirt is made from an indigo chambray fabric woven in Japan and then washed to achieve a perfectly aged color and sumptuous hand. While those qualities make it more casual, its soft Astor collar—a refined, spread style borrowed from our dress shirts—means that it can be worn just as easily with a tie and a double-breasted blazer as it can a flight jacket and a pair of Chelsea boots.

Go West
The Western Shirt
This rugged icon of timeless, American style, becomes more refined—yet no less authentic—in its Purple Label iteration. Made with a luxurious, breathable blend of cotton and linen, and finished with a hand-sewn sterling silver button at the neck, this is a shirt worthy of the saddle or the C-suite. Double-down on its heritage (and fabric) with light washed jeans and an alligator Western belt, or wear it below a sand-colored flannel suit to blend the formal and the casual like a natural.

Notes on Camp
The Camp Shirt
Among the most casual of summer styles benefits from distinctions like a silk-and-linen fabric milled in Italy that combines lightweight ease with a beautiful drape. While its boxier cut and square hem look good when worn casually above matching drawstring shorts and woven leather sandals, it’s long enough to be tucked in when you need to follow club rules.

Take the Over
The Overshirt
Made with lightweight, supple suede with a fluid hand, the overshirt is a testament to Purple Label’s exceptional attention to fine detail. Think of it as a more casual—yet no less elegant—sub for the blue blazer, which can be worn as a layer on top of everything from white denim and a cashmere crewneck sweater to chino shorts and striped cotton T-shirts.
