Most Expensive Dress Shirt

Written by: jeremy Filed Under: Fashion, Luxury, World on May 27th, 2008

They say the clothes make the man. That’s probably less true today than when you could tell a man’s occupation by the hat he wore, but if it’s true of anything then it’s true of the world’s most expensive shirt.

Swedish shirt-making company Eton, celebrating their 80th birthday, created this shirt out of the finest Egyptian cotton. Of course, it couldn’t be the most expensive shirt in the world without a few diamonds. Both the studs and the cufflinks are encrusted with diamonds—white diamonds on the cufflinks and colored diamonds on the studs.

World's most expensive shirt

As if that isn’t enough, the dress shirt will be touring the world before it’s sold at auction next year. The luxurious shirt will make stops in Milan, LA, Stockholm and a few other places with Eton stores.

The most expensive shirt is valued at £23,000 (over $45,000). Proceeds from its sale will go to charity.

    Eton is not from Switzerland, it is from Sweden

    Rayner & Sturgess shirting is however, the finest shirt a chap can wear.
    Charity apart, the rag above wouldn’t look out of place covering the back of B.J Cool Jay, Snoopy Dog, or a Lower East Side pimp who had just enjoyed a successful shipment of cheap East Europeans.

    Thank you for the correction. The shirts are made in Switzerland but, yes, the company is based in Sweden.
