Since before the Middle Ages the shirt has existed as a piece of clothing, but then only as underwear for men or as a nightgown.
In the 18th century, the shirt was no longer worn only as underwear. The collar grew into large proportions and was decorated with embroidery and lace. At the end of the World War I, the shirt went through a major transformation. It was only at that time the modern shirt with buttons all along the front became popular.
