Ami Paris Stretch Cotton Piqué Polo Shirt Blue

Alexandre Mattiussi started AMI in Paris in 2011, at thirty, after years inside the couture houses: Dior Homme's 30 Montaigne menswear line, Givenchy as first assistant on menswear, then Marc Jacobs. He had spent that whole stretch designing clothes he could not afford himself, and AMI was the correction. The name means friend in French and doubles as his initials, which tells you the posture: clothes for people you actually know rather than a runway abstraction. The Ami de Coeur, that small stitched heart with the A running through it, arrived in 2017 and quickly became the house's shorthand. This polo is the idea at its most usable: piqué, a collar, a heart, and nothing else asking for your attention. In blue, under reference E21HJ207.760.
