Vtg Nat Wise 1970 Sunset Strip Custom Button Down Shirt Hollywood Mens L Striped

Nat Wise was a distinguished shirtmaker and film wardrobe designer based on the Sunset Strip in California, renowned for crafting custom shirts for Hollywood's elite during the mid-20th century starting in about 1960. His bespoke creations were favored by iconic entertainers, including members of the Rat Pack like Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr. Each shirt was meticulously tailored to the client's specifications, often featuring personalized labels with the client's name and the inscription "Nat Wise...of London...Sunset Strip, Calif." After Nat Wise retired in 1987, his legacy was continued by Anto Beverly Hills, a bespoke shirtmaking establishment that preserved the tradition of crafting custom shirts for celebrities. This shirt is dated 1970 with the initials "G.A.W." and is a custom piece from Nat Wise's workshop. Given Wise's prominence among entertainers of that era, it's plausible that the original owner was a notable figure in the entertainment industry.
