1940s Women's Polo Shirt SUZANNE Cream White

"1940s Women's Polo Shirt SUZANNE Cream White"

Sovereign elegance from Wimbledon to the Riviera

The crowd holds its breath as "The Goddess" Suzanne Lenglen steps onto the court: our classic short-sleeved polo shirt for ladies is a charming homage to the sporting emancipation of the 1920s to 40s. Forget the restrictive, functional fits of modern sportswear. This shirt grants you the exact freedom of movement a lady requires for a tennis match, swing dancing, or a relaxed stroll along the beach. Its comfortable, authentic cut ensures you maintain a poised and elegant silhouette, even in the height of summer.

The highlight of this classic piece is its versatility: the striking turnover collar can be worn fastened high with a discreet mother-of-pearl button or open as a V-neck, allowing it to fall over the shoulders like a nautical sailor collar. Instead of a traditional button placket, this model features an elegant front slit that accentuates the neckline with understated grace. Grown-on kimono sleeves and side bust darts create a flattering silhouette that softly traces feminine curves while remaining airy and gently tailored.

This shirt is a true styling chameleon: pair it authentically with our BOARDWALK BONNIE wide-leg pyjama trousers for an afternoon at the Riviera, or tuck it blousily into our APACHE slit pencil skirt for a roaring night of Swing, Balboa, and Lindy Hop. Crafted from fine, smooth jersey made of pure cotton, this high-quality natural material retains its perfect shape through a long day by the sea or a night on the dance floor.

Details & Material

  • Colour: Cream White
  • Cut: Gently tailored polo shirt with kimono sleeves and bust darts
  • Material: Fine, smooth jersey made from 100% cotton
  • Special Features: Versatile collar (high-fastened or sailor style), straight hem for tucking in or wearing loose

Tender Care

To ensure your new favourite piece remains as timeless as its design: our fine cotton jersey appreciates gentle treatment. Treat this shirt to a cool wash (30°C delicate cycle) and strictly avoid the tumble dryer. It is happiest when left to air dry. This ensures the striking collar and the radiant cream-white retain their perfect shape for many years to come.

From the Grand Court to the Riviera

Our polo shirt in cream is a truly versatile piece for the sporting woman. For a classic maritime look, pair it with our 1930s-style BOARDWALK BONNIE pyjama trousers for a carefree day by the sea. If you prefer to show a bit of leg, style it with our high-waisted shorts. Yet, this shirt excels far beyond the summer season: when combined with rugged corduroy or tweed, it becomes the ideal companion for cool mornings in an open-top vintage car or your next Tweed Ride.

With Heart & Hand

No mass-produced goods, but true pieces of character with soul. We produce this polo shirt in small batches, consciously choosing high-quality natural fibres. The smooth cotton jersey caresses the skin and offers that authentic comfort so rarely found in modern clothing today. It is quality you don’t just see in the versatile collar, but feel with every movement and every wear.
