Looks a little brighter but should work. Hard to tell from online pics.

Oxford in the pic looks more like a cream to me? It's close and will probably work but I don't think it's an exact match

it's tagged as pale yellow. Working off a gimp rec for a champagne shirt , light yellow is the closest analogue I can find and this seems to be my best match to get a shirt that fits my freakish proportions.

I meant in the sport coat pic The color looks even more desaturated than the Luxire pale yellow

Ah, fair enough. I think the pale yellow luxire will work with a grey tweed?

I think it will work yeah but if the pic in the herringbone is living in your head then you might not be happy with the shade of the Luxire shirt

It reads to me more like this shade but in a warm lighting Not sure if you could find something similar from a MTM brand (are you sure you need MTM?)

OTR+tailoring might be an option? but depending on how much you need to modify might not be worth the hassle

yeah to get a size that fits my neck it's essentially a tent everywhere else. Have to get both sleeves shortened and wildly taken in. I've done it before, it ends up costing as much or more than mtm It's fine for casual shirts where I don't need to fuck with the top button but for dress shirts its mtm all the way

gotcha. well have a look around luxire, proper cloth, and check out the thomas mason fabrics Kent Wang will make you a shirt out of any of the Thomas Mason oxford cloths

Luxire definitely made a champagne linen shirt for someone I know... mmm Product photography often differs from real life so it's very hard to say.

If its not perfect for the grey tweed, I'd still get use out of a light yellow oxford shirt
