With its nautical striped pattern, this turtleneck shirt is far too good to wear on its own, as it cuts a fine figure in the truest sense of the word. The hard-wearing jersey is made in a distinctive ribbed knit and hugs the contours beautifully without constricting. Lanius makes it from skin-friendly, organically grown cotton. A small amount of elastane increases comfort and shape retention. The long-sleeved shirt can be combined in a variety of ways, whether worn with jeans or a skirt, under a blazer or a simple jumper. You can also wear it under a knitted sweater to create a striking visual accent with the striped turtleneck or if your skin is a little sensitive to wool.

The work of fashion label Lanius is influenced by three factors: first, a style characterised by sophisticated designs and forms, secondly the use of certified raw materials and thirdly the guarantee that all garments have been produced under fair working conditions. Depending on the garment, one factor may get centre stage, but the other factors don’t move out of the focus – however, importance is always attached to outstanding quality both in terms of materials and finish. The label was founded in 1999 by Claudia Lanius, who works on all her ideas and designs in her Cologne studio; she has them developed by her team and then assembled by producers in several countries.
