Back Shirt
The Back Shirt reimagines the classic cotton shirt-dress through a distinctly ALQUEMA lens.
Cut in crisp cotton with sculptural panelling, it falls from a clean collar and concealed placket into a softly flared hem. Subtle seam lines contour the body before releasing into volume, creating shape without restriction. Worn alone, it becomes a modern dress with presence. Layered over pleated pants or a skirt, it transforms into a lightweight coat or elongated shirt, framing what lies beneath.
A foundation piece, shaped through cut and proportion, made to evolve with the way you dress.

Cotton Linen Feel
All Alquema garments are unique, handmade and hand pleated with care. To maintain their beauty and longevity, we recommend you treat them well.
Wash by hand in cold water with a dash of mild, natural detergent. Flat dry your Alquema and please do not tumble dry or apply any heat.
To dry, lay the garment flat and leave in a shaded area. Once dry, store your garment in a cool, dry place. Hanging such garments for long periods of time may cause stretching at the shoulders and neck.
