Shirts and Blouses - Hotels and Services

The most recommended fabrics for hotel uniforms include high-quality cotton, cotton-polyester blends and technical fabrics with easy-care treatment. At RAG Tailors, we favour compositions with 60% cotton and 40% polyester, which offer the perfect balance between breathability, comfort and wrinkle resistance. For more demanding environments, we recommend antimicrobial and UV-protective fabrics. Stretch fabrics are also excellent options for service teams, as they provide greater freedom of movement during long working hours.

The choice should be in line with the brand’s values ​​and aesthetics. First, consider the corporate colours and integrate them into the uniform design. RAG Tailors offers customisation services with embroidery, printing and screen printing that incorporate logos and distinctive elements of your brand. Details such as the type of collar, cuffs, buttons and cuts also communicate values ​​– modern lines for contemporary brands, classic cuts for traditional establishments. We recommend creating visual coherence between all elements of the uniform, ensuring that the shirts and blouses create a harmonious and memorable corporate image.

Men’s hotel shirts are typically straight-cut, with wider collars and buttons on the right side. Women’s blouses, on the other hand, offer fitted cuts that flatter the silhouette, buttons on the left side and more delicate collar options. At RAG Tailors, we develop gender-specific styles, ensuring that women’s pieces include darts for a better fit and variations such as Italian or Mao collars. Sleeves also differ: men typically wear long sleeves, while women have options with 3/4 or short sleeves, especially suited for reception and customer service roles.

To preserve the quality of professional shirts and blouses, we recommend following the specific instructions on the labels. Generally, washing at moderate temperatures (maximum 40°C), separating by colour and using mild detergents are essential. RAG Tailors uniforms are designed to withstand frequent washing, with special easy-care treatments that make ironing easier. Avoid using bleach and opt for natural drying or machine drying at low temperatures. For establishments with a large volume of uniforms, there are special fabric options that maintain their impeccable appearance even after hundreds of wash cycles and intensive use.

Absolutely! Uniform customization is one of RAG Tailors’ specialties. We offer a variety of customization methods: high-quality embroidery for a premium look, printing for more complex or colorful designs, and screen printing for larger-scale productions. To request this service, simply email us your references along with an image of your logo or design. Our turnaround time for customized orders ranges from 10 to 15 business days, ensuring professional finishes that will withstand frequent washing without losing the sharpness or quality of the customization.

For receptionists and front office staff, we recommend shirts and blouses in classic cuts made from premium fabrics, favouring sober colours such as white, light blue or black. In the restaurant industry, waiters should opt for models with greater freedom of movement and stain-resistant fabrics. For waiters, more formal options with distinctive details such as cufflinks or double cuffs will elevate their status. In the kitchen, in addition to the traditional tunics, short-sleeved shirts made from technical fabrics offer thermal comfort. RAG Tailors develops specific lines for each department, ensuring that each role has the most suitable uniform for its specific needs.

Current trends in hospitality uniforms are moving towards sustainability, with a growing demand for organic and recycled fabrics and eco-friendly production processes. We are also seeing a strong trend towards designs that combine contemporary elegance with functional comfort, moving away from traditional rigidity. Modular uniforms, which allow for different combinations of pieces, are gaining popularity as they offer versatility to teams. Bolder colours and subtle personalisations are replacing classic monochrome, especially in boutique hotels and establishments with a defined concept. RAG Tailors follows these trends, incorporating innovations in technical fabrics and ergonomic designs that enhance the well-being of professionals.
