high collars
Victorian neckline style
High collars are collar styles that rise up the neck, covering more than standard collars.
They appear on formal wear, military uniforms, and clergy vestments, often suggesting authority or formality.
In fashion, high collars cycle in and out of style: The Victorian dress featured a high collar with lace trim.
Mandarin collars and turtlenecks are common high collar variants.
