What is Twill

Twill is often associated with a fabric although it exists, Twill is above all a weave. The twill shirt is characterized by diagonal ribs that are due to the weaving technique. Twill weaving corresponds to the passage of a warp thread below one weft thread, then above two weft threads. This weaving technique highlights colors and brings light to the fabric.

Twill is distinguished with the naked eye by its diagonals formed by the weaving technique. These diagonals give a textured effect to the fabric. Twill shirts are soft and pleasant to wear. This supple fabric is easy to care for and irons quickly.

Twill or poplin shirt?

Twill and poplin are two formal fabrics so don't worry if you don't know which one to choose, whatever your decision you won't make any mistake. Poplin and twill can be distinguished with the naked eye. Poplin is a finer fabric and therefore more transparent than twill.

We cannot therefore recommend one over the other because both are perfect. It is up to you to decide which product suits you best. These are two very pleasant materials to wear, you will feel light and comfortable in your shirt.

Some styling advice

From a stylistic point of view, we have several models of Twill shirts, so you can create different looks. Some shirts have more formal collars and others more casual. For a meeting with colleagues opt for a French collar shirt in blue twill that you will pair with a suit. For a smart but casual look, for example to go to an after work event, opt for a white twill shirt with a reverse collar. Wear it loose over your jeans with a pair of sneakers.
