Lilac Grid Check Mayfair Shirt
The verdict
Fit
Mayfair regular fit; lilac-on-white grid patterns don't emphasize fit issues but show wrinkles more readily than darker colors.
Quality
575 USD is standard for Turnbull & Asser's off-the-rack patterned shirts; light colors don't affect construction difficulty.
Price check
This is their typical off-the-rack pricing; the lilac color doesn't add special value, just personal preference.
Best for
Business-casual wearers who can wear softer pastels and want a dress shirt with pattern that works with or without a tie.
Care
Lilac is a light dye; avoid mixed loads with darker fabrics to prevent color bleeding, and launder promptly to avoid staining.

What owners report about Turnbull & Asser button-ups
Forum posters rate Turnbull & Asser shirts among the top tier of English ready-to-wear for construction, citing dense stitching, hand-sewn side-seam gussets, and consistently clean finishing. The recurring gripe is price rather than quality: several Ask Andy posters call the shirts good but dreadfully expensive, arguing similar quality can be had elsewhere on Jermyn Street for less. Reviewers also note the styling reads business-first — the house medium-spread collar does not sit as well worn open — so the line suits tucked, tailored wear better than casual use.
- Strengths
- Owners consistently report first-rate English construction — dense stitching, reinforced seams, collars that keep their shape — with quality described as flawless and consistent across the range.
- Watch out for
- Reviewers say you pay a steep heritage premium, and the formal cut and collar styling limit the shirts' usefulness worn casually or open-necked.
- Sizing
- The old generous cut has been phased out for a decidedly slimmer ready-to-wear block, so longtime buyers report the current fits run trimmer than they expect; Regular remains the roomiest of the three fits.
