Caliban is an Italian label built on shirt-making, producing precisely tailored cotton shirts and blouses with embroidered and printed detail. The collection extends the same cut and finish into shirt dresses and jackets, with a refined, feminine character throughout.

What is Caliban known for?

Caliban is best known for beautifully constructed shirts and blouses, particularly embroidered styles and floral prints, made with Italian shirt-making precision. Shirt dresses and tailored jackets round out the range, sharing the same attention to fabric and finish.

Where can I buy Caliban in the UK?

You can buy Caliban at Lonah, an independent designer boutique in Westbourne, Bournemouth, in store and online with free UK delivery. The Lonah edit covers Caliban shirts, blouses, shirt dresses and jackets, selected each season.

Is Caliban true to size?

Caliban uses Italian sizing, which we convert and display as UK sizes on each Lonah product page. Shirts are tailored rather than oversized, so most customers take their usual converted size. If you prefer a looser fit or are between sizes, call the team on 01202 540600 for advice.

How do I care for Caliban shirts and blouses?

Wash cotton Caliban shirts cool on a gentle cycle and iron while slightly damp for the crispest finish, turning embroidered styles inside out to protect the stitching. Printed and delicate blouses may need a hand wash or dry clean, so always follow the care label on the individual garment.

Caliban

Caliban is Italian shirt-making, and everything in the collection flows from that craft. Precise cotton tailoring, embroidery and print work run through the label's shirts and blouses, and at Lonah we carry a Caliban edit in our Westbourne, Bournemouth boutique and online.

Current pieces include the blue embroidered shirt, multicolour and floral print blouses, a beige floral shirt dress, a pink floral maxi dress and a navy blue jacket, extending the shirt-maker's cut and finish into dresses and outerwear.

A well-made shirt is the hardest-working thing on a rail. Caliban's read polished open over a vest, tucked into tailoring or worn loose with linen trousers, and the embroidered styles carry enough detail to stand as the outfit's main event.

Every Caliban piece is hand-picked for the boutique. Free UK delivery on all orders, 14-day returns on online purchases, and the team is on 01202 540600 for sizing advice.
