Smooth French, classic applied, or concealed placket – find the ideal variant for your style.
The 3 Shirt Placket Styles Compared
The placket draws the eye along the front of your shirt. Depending on your choice, it underscores business formality, casual charm, or black-tie elegance.
Smooth French Placket
Folded inward with clean, seamless edges. Contemporary, versatile, and the definitive business staple.
Applied Placket
Double-folded with visible topstitched seams. Provides extra structural firmness for Oxford and casual shirts.
Concealed Placket
Buttons are hidden beneath an elegant fabric fly. Ideal for tuxedos, bow ties, and gala events.
Smooth French Placket
The French placket is the most understated and modern style. The fabric folds cleanly inward without front stitch lines, creating an uncluttered aesthetic perfect for business suits and smart evening wear.
Applied Placket
Features two parallel stitched seams along either side of the button row. This adds substance and structure to the shirt front, harmonizing particularly well with button-down collars and textured fabrics.
Concealed Placket (Fly Front)
A flap of fabric conceals all buttons except the collar button, delivering an immaculate, minimalist look. Essential for black-tie shirts, formal dinner shirts, and sleek contemporary designs.
