Button-up Shirt Long Sleeve ARCADES
A Story to Tell
Imagine wearing this shirt at a cultural event, and someone asks about the design. With a smile, you explain, "This shirt is called ARCADES, designed by Christiane Jungermann. The geometric shapes and bold colors evoke ancient arcades, telling stories of times long past. It's a blend of architecture and art, uniquely fused together. With only 99 pieces worldwide, it’s a true work of art that bridges history and modernity."
Artistic Design and Premium Craftsmanship
The ARCADES shirt by GERMENS combines artistic architecture and vibrant colors in a unique design. Christiane Jungermann masterfully translated arcade structures into dynamic geometric forms. The dominant colors of this shirt—a vivid red, blue, and black—create a strong contrast, giving the shirt a bold yet elegant appearance.
This shirt is made from 100% high-quality cotton produced in Saxony. The cotton is natural and skin-friendly, as well as odor-resistant, making it perfect for daily wear. The finely sewn seams, with 7 to 8 stitches per centimeter, ensure exceptional durability, while the sturdy stem-stitched buttons guarantee the shirt's longevity. The Kent collar, equipped with removable stainless steel stays, ensures a perfect collar shape and highlights the shirt's high quality. The GERMENS collar notch and often color-contrasted angled cuffs add extra stylish accents.
Exclusivity and Tailored Service
The ARCADES shirt is produced in a limited edition of just 99 pieces, making it an exclusive collector's item. It is available in ten different sizes, from XS to 6XL. If your size is not immediately available, the shirt will be custom-made just for you, which may take a few weeks. For new customers, we recommend using our Try-on service for home to find the perfect size. If any alterations are needed, our Modification service is available.
This shirt is not only a fashion highlight but also easy to care for. The colors remain vibrant even after many washes, and it is easy to iron or shape with a steam dummy.

GERMENS artfashion – The extravagant fashion brand since 2010
GERMENS artfashion – Art to wear
GERMENS is more than just fashion. It is an extraordinary concept that combines art, individuality and sustainability. Since it was founded in 2010, GERMENS has stood for wearable works of art – each item of clothing is created in collaboration with international artists and is absolutely unique in its design.
Why GERMENS? Because we rethink fashion. Instead of producing mass-produced goods, we manufacture exclusively to order or in small, limited editions. This reduces overproduction, conserves resources and makes every GERMENS piece something special. Our fabrics come from Saxony and are made into high-quality shirts, blouses and T-shirts in Europe – with attention to detail and precision craftsmanship.
GERMENS stands for exceptional designs that emphasize the character of their wearer. For quality that you can feel. And for an attitude that sees fashion as an expression of personality and culture.
GERMENS is fashion for people who don't want to look like everyone else – but like themselves.

Exclusive designs - printed to fit perfectl
