Our tip: Collar, collar band, and cuff interlinings should be selected as a balanced system.
-
Yes. Follow these key rules for optimal collar performance:
- Collar skin should not be lighter than the collar patch.
- Collar band must support the top collar.
- Business shirts typically use a collar patch.
- Cuff interlining can often match the collar skin.
- Collar skin, collar patch, and cuffs are usually cut in warp direction.
- Collar bands can be cut in warp or bias direction.
- Formal shirts may use heavier interlinings cut on the bias.
Our tip: Use the same interlining for the collar skin and collar band for balanced results.
