The Director shape is quite straightforward — spread collar, button placket, full sleeves — except for the dramatic rounded hem that dips low in the back. Great layering potential, and it can go as dressed-up or dressed-down as you want it to. The fabric of this one is beautiful, too. We've long used an around-the-office portmanteau for it (royal + oxford = roxford,), since it’s lighter and dressier than a traditional oxford, with a more defined texture and a slight glow to the surface.
