What is plain shirting fabric?

Plain (plain-dyed) shirting is solid-colour cloth — the wardrobe backbone of formal and business shirts. The colour is dyed at the piece or yarn stage rather than printed, giving clean, even solids in every construction. Learn more in our guide: yarn-dyed vs piece-dyed.
