Uniform shirts for securities firms: collar, colour and fabric
Securities firm uniform shirts need a tidy collar, a calm colour and cloth that lasts a day. Mon Amie: men's shirts from 600,000 VND, women's from 480,000.
A uniform shirt for a securities firm should have a collar that holds its shape under a tie, a neutral or brand-tone colour, and cloth that breathes and resists creasing enough for someone seated in front of a screen all day. Brokers and investment advisers meet clients, work in teams and watch the market board in one and the same shirt, so collar, colour and cloth should be chosen for the rhythm of that day rather than for a catalogue photo.
A broker's day, seen through the shirt
From the team briefing at the start of the day through hours at the screen, client meetings at an advice desk and a closing conversation with investors, the shirt passes through four conditions. Each asks something different of it:
- Long sitting at a screen: creases at the stomach, elbows and chair back, and a collar pushed up whenever the wearer leans in.
- Mouse and keyboard work: sleeves and cuffs should not snag, and cuff buttons should not dig in when the hand rests on the desk.
- Close client contact: the collar, button placket and embroidered logo are what a client sees first.
- Meeting investors late in the day: the shirt must still look tidy after more than half a day's wear.
Collars: decide by whether a tie is worn
| Collar | Suits | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Classic spread collar | Tie, investor meetings, jacket on top | Moderate interlining, not so stiff that it digs in when leaning |
| Button-down collar | No tie, a modern relaxed look | Softer cloth, so enough interlining is needed to keep it from collapsing after washing |
| Small point or low stand collar (women's shirts) | Worn alone or under a women's jacket | Leaves the neckline clear, works with simple jewellery |
The classic spread collar is a familiar choice for men because it keeps a tie straight. Whichever style you pick, feel the collar interlining on a real sample; it shows whether the shirt will keep its shape after repeated washing.

Colour and logo embroidery
Finance tends to favour white, pale blue or the brand's own blue, because they read as clear and calm. Build on your brand colours; at the design stage Mon Amie presents three options in them for comparison. A few notes:
- White: clean and formal, but it shows marks quickly at collar and cuffs.
- Pale blue: hides slight staining better than white and sits well under a jacket.
- Logo embroidery: small, on the left chest, with flat stitching so the cloth does not pucker around it. If staff usually wear a jacket or waistcoat on top, the left chest will be covered, and another position can be agreed at the design stage.
More on dressing this sector is on our banking and finance uniforms page.
Cloth for a full day
Dealing rooms are air-conditioned, but anyone seated for hours still builds up heat at the back and stomach. A few fabric families are often considered, depending on fibre and weave:
- Cotton-polyester blend: often described as creasing less than pure cotton while staying reasonably breathable.
- Densely woven pure cotton: soft against the skin but more prone to creasing in long sittings.
- Blends with slight stretch: convenient for reaching, passing documents and long mouse work.
Real swatches are shown at the design stage for your team to see and handle, and the page for men's shirts is a good place to start.
Starting prices and minimums
On the pricing page, men's shirts start from 600,000 VND and women's shirts from 480,000 VND, each with a minimum of 20. Each figure is where its own category begins; fabric, style and quantity set the real price. Our budget estimate page can help you frame costs before a consultation.
Mon Amie measures each employee at your office, including outside office hours if needed, and stores the measurements under employee IDs. Send the headcount and brand colours through the quote page or call 0888.111.118 to arrange a survey.
Frequently asked questions
Should male brokers wear white or pale blue shirts?
Both work; choose by your brand colour and by whether a tie is worn. White gives a formal look but shows marks at the collar sooner, while pale blue is easier to live with over several days in a row.
Where should the logo go so a jacket does not cover it?
If staff usually wear a jacket or waistcoat over the shirt, the left chest will be largely hidden. Consider another position such as the sleeve or cuff, and settle it at the design stage while looking at a real sample.
Which women's shirt style suits investment advisers?
A tidy collar and a body that fits well enough to sit, lean and reach comfortably. Women's shirts start from 480,000 VND with a minimum of 20, and the exact style is settled at the design stage.
Will a new hire's shirt match the existing team's?
A new employee is measured individually and made to the approved pattern, so the style and colour match the current team. Measurements already taken are stored under employee IDs for later orders.
