Hi all,
Does anybody what the story or concept is behind this Ralph Lauren collar? I don't think I've ever seen a spread collar cut so far back:
It seems like it's almost a reversal of the typical collar's forward direction.
Or is it just me?
Now That's What I Call A Spread Collar!
A London friend of mine has been wearing collars like that for years. They can look good, but require confidence, as well as a very neat way with your tie knotting.

there is another picture of a 'cutaway' collar.
That's wild. And not a look I'd even want to try to attempt.
Keep in mind that collars sweep back substantially when shirts are folded like that. It won't look quite so dramatic when it is being worn. For, instance, it won't be as cut-away as that Udeshi collar.
I've actually heard that style referred to as a "London Collar."

Would I be correct in thinking that it is not appropriate that the points of one's collar disappear under one's waistcoat?
The look strikes me as rather a throwback to the very early 20th century? I like it, but hardly for the everyday. Splendid with a morning suit.
Cheers,
