LAYERING WITHOUT THE LAYERS.

Because looking good shouldn't make you uncomfortable

Simply Collars was born from a school shirt mishap—and a lightbulb moment. When my daughter came home one day wearing the chopped-up remains of her school blouse (just the collar, with sleeves and hem hacked off), I realised she was onto something. She wanted the look of a shirt without the discomfort and bulk.

After struggling to find a decent ‘fake collar’ on the market, I decided to curate my own range. I’d always avoided wearing shirts myself—too tight, too hot, too uncomfortable—so the idea of a lightweight collar I could wear with a jumper, knit or dress really appealed.

perfect for the warmer customer!

A collar without the faff!

When I spoke to friends (most of us navigating menopause, so we know a thing or two about temperature spikes), the response was unanimous: Yes please!  We all loved the idea of having that smart, layered look without the faff of buttons and bunching.

So here it is. Simply Collars is a practical, stylish solution to shirt discomfort. Designed for real women who want to feel confident, comfortable and put-together without sweating through a shirt.

A lighter way to dress

A more sustainable choice

At Simply Collars, we believe looking good shouldn’t cost the earth. We’re a small but thoughtful business, and while we’re not perfect, we’re making conscious choices as we grow.

We currently use air freight from one of our suppliers, simply because at our scale, it’s the only way we can access the products we love. But we don’t take that lightly. For every delivery we receive, we plant four trees to help balance our impact.

Our packaging is also carefully considered. The postal boxes we use are 100% recycled, fully recyclable, and designed to create as little waste as possible.

Less Waste, More Wear

Lower Impact, Smaller Footprint

More Style, Less Shopping

Why collars are a clever and more sustainable choice

Wearing a collar instead of a full shirt isn’t just about comfort and style – it’s also a more mindful way to dress. Here’s why:

Less waste, more wear
Collars use just a fraction of the fabric compared to a full shirt. That means less textile waste in production, and more ways to extend the life of clothes you already own. Layer one under a jumper and bring new life to an outfit that’s been sitting in the wardrobe.

Lower impact, smaller footprint
Making a cotton shirt can take thousands of litres of water. A collar? Much less. And because it’s smaller, there’s less energy and dye used too. It’s a simple switch that adds up.

More style, less shopping
One collar, endless outfits. It’s an easy way to change your look without constantly buying new clothes. It’s also a gentle step towards buying less and choosing better.

Recycling and end of life

Our collars are made from either cotton or polyester. We hope yours will last for years, but when you’re done with it, we encourage you to recycle it locally where possible.
