From a brand renowned for its precise tailoring and formal attire, it came as something of a surprise when Dadelszen announced the release of a simple, unisex t-shirt style, the Dean. But while its style is inherently casual, its nature is perfectly aligned with this brand’s high-end reputation and has been touted by those wearing it as the ‘perfect’ cut.

Embodying Dadelszen’s penchant for clean lines and wearable luxury, the Dean — rather than being your run-of-the-mill crew neck — is fashioned in a seamless construction from the finest Italian GIZA Sesia cotton, a premium fabric that is also proudly part of the Better Cotton Initiative (striving to make the production of this textile a more sustainable process). Made in New Zealand and available in four colourways (marle grey, ink navy, arctic white and black) this tee is encouraging all of us to channel the untouchable ‘cool’ of James Dean and is the piece every wardrobe needs this season.
