A white shirt with coloured shirt buttons is one of the easiest ways to make a collection recognisable. A contrast button draws the eye to the collar and cuff, adds a playful or refined character and turns a basic shirt into a designer piece – without changing the cut or the fabric.
Why contrast buttons work
- Recognisability – the same button colour across all styles becomes the brand's signature.
- Low cost of change – a new season can get a new look simply by changing the button colour.
- Coordination with embroidery and labels – the button can echo the colour of the logo, the embroidery or the thread.
Coloured shirt buttons: the classic model in a new colour
Our shirt buttons have 4 holes, a raised rim and a pearl effect that gives a soft sheen even in saturated colours. They are polyester buttons, not genuine mother-of-pearl, and we offer them in the standard shirt sizes:
- 14L (9 mm) – button-down collar buttons;
- 16L (10 mm) – collar and cuffs;
- 18L (11.5 mm) – the main front fastening;
- 20L (12.5 mm) – heavier shirts, overshirts and blouses.
You can find more about the classic styles and sizes in the article classic pearl-effect shirt buttons.
Colours that work best
- White shirt – navy, red, green or orange for a clear accent; light blue and grey for a subtle contrast.
- Denim and chambray – yellow, orange and red.
- Black shirt – pearl white, grey or bright yellow.
- Pastel shirts – a button in a darker tone of the same colour.
Beyond the colours in our standard range, we dye buttons to Pantone or to a sample of your fabric – so you can get exactly your brand colour.
