The Oversized Silk Shirt for Women: Between Art and Style | AYT Studio
A symbol of elegance and freedom, the oversized silk shirt for women transcends eras without ever losing its modern edge. Born from men’s tailoring, it has become an iconic piece in the contemporary feminine wardrobe. At AYT Studio, it embodies the duality of today’s woman — gentle yet strong, intimate yet assertive.
Origins Rooted in Intimacy
In the Middle Ages, the shirt was worn as a night garment, reserved for privacy. This original connection to the skin still feeds its symbolism today. In silk, it preserves that softness — a sensual dialogue with the body. The silk shirt evokes the caress of a delicate fabric, both refined and protective.
AYT Studio’s Reinterpretation
At AYT Studio, the oversized silk shirt for women becomes a true artistic statement. Each piece draws inspiration from an artwork created in collaboration with an artist.
The Mue shirt, for example, incorporates pinstripes inspired by men’s suiting, interwoven with bird motifs from artist REMED, symbolizing transformation.
The 'Temperance' shirt, on the other hand, portrays a woman holding a jug — a metaphor for balance and self-control, inspired by REMED’s painting Tempérance.
Finally, the 'Clouds of birds' shirt evokes freedom and motion, recalling the lightness of the sky.

Each printed shirt expresses a plural vision of femininity — strength through the oversized cut, softness through the silk. The noble material flows effortlessly, shaping a free and graceful silhouette.
An Expression of Feminine Duality
The oversized silk shirt for women conveys a tension between power and vulnerability. It recalls the masculine suit while retaining a discreet sensuality. The silk shirt becomes a second skin — fluid yet structured. This duality mirrors AYT Studio’s philosophy: reconciling art and fashion, strength and softness.
Styling Games: The Art of Mix and Match
With the printed shirt, everything is a matter of attitude. It lends itself to endless variations.
Worn open over AYT Studio’s high-waisted Tribe jeans, it creates an effortless and confident silhouette. In winter, it layers over a fine turtleneck knit. In summer, it ties at the waist or slips over a swimsuit.
The mix and match spirit also extends to accessories. The DUAL shoulder bag enhances this contrast between modernity and timelessness. Together, they create a dialogue between structure and fluidity.
A Shirt as a Wearable Artwork
Each printed shirt by AYT Studio is conceived as a wearable artwork. The motifs converse with the lines of the garment. The mix and match becomes a playground for self-expression.Wearing the oversized silk shirt means embracing a fragment of art — bringing it to life, in movement.
The oversized silk shirt is far more than a trend. It embodies a mindset, a way of being in the world. In silk or in print, it combines emotion, comfort, and strength.
At AYT Studio, it stands as a symbol of contemporary womanhood. And you — how will you wear yours?
