Our classic Camp Collar Shirt gets a unique update in a limited-edition collab with The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Todd’s reimagined the traditional silhouette with a boxier, ever-so-slightly cropped fit and a silky tencel fabric, resulting in a shirt that’s meant to drape well and show off your trousers. The shorter length also serves to balance the collaged print in a chic, modern way. Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853–1890) considered oleanders joyous, life-affirming flowers — in this summer painting,Oleanders (1888), they fill a majolica jug that the artist used for other still lifes made in Arles. They are symbolically juxtaposed with Émile Zola'sLa joie de vivre, a novel Vincent van Gogh placed in contrast to an open Bible in an 1885 Nuenen still life.
As part of its mission to bring art to life, The Metropolitan Museum of Art invited Todd to design a series of wearable works of art. “The colors and brushstrokes of Van Gogh feel incredibly modern, incredibly relevant,” says Todd of the permanent collection pieces he chose to adapt for this unique collaboration.
