shirtmakers
Button-up clothing craftspeople
Shirtmakers are people or companies that manufacture shirts, especially dress shirts.
The term often implies traditional craftsmanship or bespoke tailoring rather than mass production: Jermyn Street in London is famous for its shirtmakers.
A shirtmaker may also be someone who sews shirts as a trade or hobby.
