Anyone know who does these?

I've looked at TM Lewin - they only do a regular collar in slim fit. Can't see anything from Charles Tyrwhitt.

i imagione Next would, as their fit is generally slim - but can;t see anything on their website or H7M.

Any recommendations.

M&S usually have their shirts cut HUGE!
 
why wing collar? does it say that on the invite?

just go with the normal collar. they look better anyway
 
Avoid TM Lewin, their shirts are crap. You can get much better for the same money.

Dress shirts generally don't come in a slim fit, they're usually made with a traditional fit. I can't think of anyone that does a slim fit dress shirt off the top of my head, you may need to get one made for you.
Also, does the invitation state that the collar should be winged? Don't rule out a turndown collar. I personally think it looks much better.

Check out these:
Hawes & Curtis - http://www.hawesandcurtis.com/detail_page.asp?pid=MS-WA3622
Harvie & Hudson - http://www.harvieandhudson.com/product-view.phtml?id=133
Haines & Bonner - http://www.haines-bonner.co.uk/ShopByProduct_Dress Shirts.html

And in my opinion, the best of the lot -
Smyth & Gibson - http://www.smythandgibson.com/store/item/467/white-dress-shirt/

I have the Smyth & Gibson shirt and it is excellent. It's a bit more than you want to spend but it will last you years.
The Hawes & Curtis shirt is closest to your budget but their shirts are usually very generous in their fit so that may put you off. I haven't tried the Harvie & Hudson dress shirt but I have a few of their normal shirts and whilst the fit isn't as generous as Hawes & Curtis shirts, it's hardly what I would call slim.


As a last resort, check out somewhere like Moss Bros. The shirt will be a piece of crap compared to a 'proper' shirt but if it's for one night only I'm sure you're hardly that fussed.

not classy - but you aren't going to get much better with a budget of £30
my brother is very very slim - and wears their shirts
he thinks the darting makes them look almost tailored
i haven't seen a wing collar shirt - but it'd be worth checking!
