Poell, who was born in Austria in 1966, lives and works in Milan, where he started his clothing brand in 1995. He does not work within the classic fashion cycle but rather produces and shows when he feels like it. Poell, who has developed a cult following around himself, is widely considered one of the most important and influential designers in the avant-garde and artisanal fashion world. Especially his use of leather and tailoring are revolutionary and highly sought-after among collectors.
This very rare shirt is one of the Austrian designer's most iconic pieces, the so-called chainseam shirt from the Spring 2007 collection. It has its name from its unusual construction. The individual Poell Code for this piece is CM/2240 SPUR/1. It still comes with its original rice bag.
