Bellevue

Story One of the first fabrics of the colonial new world by way of Manchester, gingham was mass produced in textile mills in the southeast US well into the 20th century. Its simple yet elegant weave renders a reversible fabric, crisp yet soft, with varied uses from apparel to linens. Bellevue's classic baby blue and white gingham check breathes life into the most dreary winter day. Few understand the journey of the Bellevue shirt. Worn by you, it stands as an example of American heritage.

It is renowned as some of the best in the world. It has an extra long staple, which means it has longer fibers, resulting in a silkier, more durable fabric. Poplin, sometimes called broadcloth, is a plain weave which means the threads alternately cross over and then under each other. This results in a very smooth and durable fabric that has an almost silky hand feel, particularly with higher thread counts. Also, poplins look very crisp when ironed.
