The Stone Linen Work Shirt WS50 from Informale is a refined take on classic French workwear, sitting somewhere between a jacket and an overshirt. Inspired by a vintage piece from 1950s France, the WS50 has become one of Informale’s signature silhouettes — designed to be worn easily on its own or paired with the matching T005 Trousers as a relaxed summer suit. Made in Melbourne from a substantial British-woven linen, it offers structure from the outset while softening beautifully over time.

The clean, minimal design keeps the piece versatile, while functional details like the deep chest pockets and concealed placket give it quiet utility without losing refinement. Easy to throw on, easy to live in.

Inspired by Vintage French Workwear

The WS50 takes cues from traditional mid-century French chore jackets, reworked into a cleaner, more versatile silhouette. The result is a garment that feels relaxed yet considered — equally suited to tailoring, knitwear, denim, or worn as lightweight outerwear through warmer months.

British Linen with Structure & Character

Crafted from 100% linen woven, dyed, and sourced in Britain, the fabric has a more substantial handle than typical lightweight summer linen. It holds its shape well, offering structure and texture while remaining breathable and comfortable in warmer weather.
