Product Insights
The Striped Notch-Collar Knit Shirt from Icône by Simons, a Canadian fashion authority since 1840, offers a versatile, breathable organic cotton knit with a boxy silhouette and a notch collar that elongates the neck and broadens shoulders. Designed to be worn buttoned or open as a lightweight jacket or cover-up, it pairs with matching shorts for a cohesive set. The openwork knit provides moisture-wicking comfort and stretch recovery, but may be sheer, requiring a camisole underneath. The oversized fit, balanced by the matching short or a half-tuck into high-waisted bottoms, is a point of division among buyers, who recommend sizing down for a neater look. At CA$19.99, it offers significant savings compared to similar tops.

- Care
- Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and lay flat to dry to minimize shrinkage; always check the garment's care label before washing.
- Fabric weight
- The fabric is heavier than anticipated for an openwork knit, so it may not be the best choice for very hot weather.

Reviewers also note it can be buttoned up for a more polished look, though some find the intentionally oversized fit runs too large for their preference.[2]

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Striped Notch-Collar Knit Shirt: Choose this if you want a relaxed, intentionally oversized knit shirt in a striped navy-on-white design, made from a soft, stretchy blend of 82% organic cotton and 18% polyester. Reviewers highlight its versatility: worn open over a tee it works as a lightweight layer, while buttoned up the notch collar dresses it up for work-from-home or casual dinners. Note that the boxy cut runs large for some reviewers, so it may not suit those wanting a trim, fitted silhouette.[2,3] | Piqué Knit Notched Collar Boxy-Fit Blouse: Choose this if you want a lightweight, flowy boxy blouse with a relaxed silhouette — it offers a notched collar, short sleeves, small full-length pearly buttons, and a straight hem with side slits. It's made of fine piqué knit in 57% LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose and 43% nylon, which the brand characterizes as forest-conscious, and comes in Patterned Blue with narrow vertical white pinstripes in sizes X-Small through X-Large. Note that the fabric is slightly sheer, which may affect how you layer it.[4,5] | Puff-Sleeve Loose Striped Shirt: Choose this if you want a relaxed, boxy everyday shirt in lightweight cotton-linen-blend fabric (30% cotton, 30% viscose, 20% linen, 20% polyester) with vertical blue-and-white stripes, a pointed collar, and full puff sleeves gathered into narrow buttoned cuffs. It works well worn untucked, with a curved hem that is longer behind and falls over the hips, plus back pleats for ease of movement. Note that the lightweight woven fabric shows subtle creasing and soft folds in wear, and it comes in the Patterned Blue colorway in sizes small, medium, and large.[6,7,8] |

Well made, cute style
Over sized, lovely cotton fabric
Cute summer shirt
This shirt is well made and comfortable. The fabric is heavier than anticipated, so maybe not great for hot weather. Can be worn buttoned up or over a t-shirt. I like the styling - loose and boxy.
Great style and quality material
I would have liked to keep this shirt, I liked everything about it except the size. I ordered a medium because the model was wearing a small and I’m not a big person, I weigh about 130lb and thought med was right. It was much too large. The problem is not having a store in Kingston to try clothes on, can’t keep reordering and mailing items back.
