The Tale of the Tunic

• The story of the tunic dates back to ancient
  Greece, where it was a common garment worn by men
  and women alike. Characterised by their loose
  fitting and versatile design, tunics offered
  comfortable to wear while meeting the style
  quotient of the period.
• A tunic can be perceived as a long shirt or even
  a short dress, depending on its length and how
  you choose to style it. They are generally outer
  garments, often featuring long sleeves, though
  short sleeve versions are also prevalent,
  providing a bit more flexibility for wear in
  warmer weather. From high collars to different
  embellishments, tunics offer various styles.

• Tunics are still quite popular today. They have
  always stayed in fashion. You can comfortably
  pair a tunic top with jeans, be it regular or
  skinny, and rock a casual yet sophisticated look.
  Tunics also play a significant role in certain
  cultures.
• British tunics, for example, were typically worn
  by the military and continue to be a part of
  ceremonial uniforms. The Arab culture also
  incorporates tunics in their traditional attire,
  known as thobe or dishdasha, signifying their
  cultural identity.

Shirts The Classic Choice

• Shirts, typically worn by men, are a traditional
  choice that always delivers a smart look.
  Generally less loose than tunics, shirts are more
  structured and feature elements like a collar,
  button front, and cuffs. They are traditionally
  considered inner garments under suits or jackets
  but stand firm as independent pieces of clothing.
• Shirts can be tucked into trousers or jeans and
  are available in long and short sleeves, catering
  to different occasions and weather conditions.
