Short description

A modern take on a classic reimagined, our pastel green and blue Lela Shirt is a play on contrasts. This is the shirt that will bring a freshness to your everyday wardrobe in its joyful tones. Cut from soft crisp cotton, the Lela is as versatile as it is seasonless. Wear for work, weekend or layered over a dress or cami.

Special flourishes elevate this timeless wardrobe foundation; finished with tonal topstitching, natural ivory corozo buttons, subtle chevron cotton tape detailing at the pockets, with a softly curved hem so it drapes beautifully when untucked, whilst the box pleat at the back gives the shirt an elegant swing on your body.


Composition: 100% Cotton

Made in London, UK, by Apparel Tasker

Shirt is a boxy fit to drape off the body, finishing below the trouser line for coverage.

Wash less, love always

We recommend hanging your shirt to air outdoors, rather than washing after every wear. This way, it will last longer and also have a lower environmental impact. Spot clean marks with warm soapy water, and when it does need a wash, follow our care advice:

  • Machine wash 30 degrees
  • Wash with similar colours
  • Medium iron
  • Do not bleach
  • Do not tumble dry

A note on our cotton and corozo buttons

Our Lela shirt has been made super soft cotton, certified STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®, which means it’s completely free from chemicals harmful to your skin. We’ve used corozo – known as vegetable ivory – for our buttons, as it comes from a nut found in South America which can only be harvested once it naturally falls to the ground, making it a more sustainable choice.

This beautiful shirt was made in the UK, in East London, by Apparel Tasker, a short distance from our studio; keeping our carbon footprint to a minimum and supporting our local manufacturing industry.

About the brand

Saywood was founded in 2020 by Harriet Saywood-Bellisario. As she beautifully put it: "The stories behind what you wear create that feeling of true joy when you get dressed each day, filling you with the confidence to take on the world, with the conviction that your most loved wardrobe pieces contribute to a positive fashion future, instead of the global fashion crisis". We absolutely love that!

At the heart of Saywood's story is a desire to reconnect you with the people and processes behind what you wear, and in doing so, press pause on throwaway fashion. Saywood does this through storytelling and by creating timeless pieces that you can rediscover each time you wear and rewear them.

Eco-friendly: Saywood uses materials like deadstock cotton, recycled cotton, Japanese denim and Supima cotton. They produce in small batches and offer mending services. If, after years, you're done with your product, they collaborate with OWNI; a peer-to-peer resale platform.

Local & fair production: Saywood works with factories in the UK and Romania for manufacturing and the fabrics are from factories in Italy and Portugal. These factories are all audited by multiple organizations and certifications to ensure ethical working conditions. As the factory in Romania increased its minimum order quantity, Saywood will switch to another supplier for future collections.

Vegan: as Saywood uses Codelite buttons, which are made from a protein from milk, the brand is not completely vegan. However, except for these buttons they are! 

Good cause: Saywood has a Saywood for Good Initiative. At the end of each year, Saywood donates a percentage of its revenue to grassroots organisations aligned with their sustainability goals. These organizations are Labour Behind the Label (an NGO committed to better working conditions for garment workers), Trafino/Forever Lung (an organization protecting tropical forests) and Solar Sister (an organization investing in women's clean energy businesses in off-grid communities in Africa).
