Bowbridge Printed Organic Cotton Jersey Shirt, Blue

The Bowbridge is back — and the print it's carrying this season is worth a proper look. Bobbing poppies painted in a loose, painterly manner with pointillist micro dots as a background; inky navy notes and soft pink hues that nod to the energy of emerging spring. It's the kind of print that stops you in the shop.

Beneath it, the shirt is as considered as the print. Cut in 100% organic cotton jersey — soft, breathable, and with enough stretch to make it genuinely comfortable all day — it's a traditional shirt shape with a collar, cuffs, and a mock horn button-down placket. The curved hem works tucked or out, and at 64cm it sits at just the right length for either. Easy care, too: the jersey fabric holds its shape wash after wash with no fuss.

Lily & Me is a family-run brand with a supply chain worth knowing about. Founded in 2007 by Amelia and Hari and based in the Cotswolds, they design all their own prints and manufacture in their own factory in Kathmandu — a community they've grown with over nearly two decades. When you buy Lily & Me, you know exactly who made it.
