When a customer considers buying a made-to-measure shirt, there are several questions to think about, decisions to make depending on how he wants the future garment to be. For example, the colour, the print, the type of fabric, the type of button fastening .... and, of course, the collar. In this post we are going to see what types of collars for shirts are available to us. camisas hechas a medida
Camisería Burgos We are talking about one of the details that will make the difference, that will be decisive in the final result. The collar is a very versatile piece of tailoring. Depending on the trends of the moment and the cut and style that the client of Camisería Burgos usually uses, one type of collar or another will be appropriate. Let's take a look at the most common ones:
CUELLO INGLÉS – TURNDOWN COLLAR

- Cuello inglés – Turndown collar
- Cuello italiano – Spread collar
- Cutaway collar
- Cuello americano – Soft-roll collar
- Cuello ópera – Wing collar
- Cuello Mao – Mandarin collar
The traditional collar for dress shirts. Formal and discreet cut, it is characterised by elongated points which may vary in distance and length depending on the shirtmaker who is making the garment. It is usually higher than the collar of casual shirts. Therefore, it covers more and gives a more elegant appearance. For this reason, the English collar is usually worn with a suit. If you want to wear it with a tie, remember that, being narrower, the knot will have to be thinner and tighter. An ideal option for men with long necks.
CUELLO ITALIANO – SPREAD COLLAR
It is a more open piece, with a narrower foot and shorter points than the English collar. Typical of southern Europe. It may or may not have a tie. If the client wants to wear it, the advantage is that it will expose the knot, allowing it to show off more and allowing the use of wider loops and wider ties. This type of collar suits all types of faces and complexions, especially short necks as it is slimming.
CUTAWAY COLLAR
It is an evolution of the Italian collar with a slight variation. It is short, with open ends, but the cut of the blades includes a slight curvature. To make it look best, it should be worn with a simple, very narrow tie knot.
CUELLO AMERICANO – SOFT-ROLL COLLAR
Typical collar with buttons at the ends. Originally it was part of the sportsmen's uniform. According to European tradition, with a more purist tailoring, it should not be worn with a tie. It is more suitable for casual shirts.
CUELLO ÓPERA – WING COLLAR
Its use is reserved for gala events and what it does is to enhance the bow tie or necktie.
CUELLO MAO – MANDARIN COLLAR
It's a short, open, raised piece with rounded ends, inspired by the costumes of Imperial China. A perfect option for the summer season that we are about to start.
