The shirt includes a vertically extending front placket and a vertically extending rear placket which are selectively attachable together through buttons on the rear placket and buttonholes in corresponding positions through the front placket. The front placket and rear placket extend down from a neck opening to a junction. A false placket extends down from the junction. The false placket has appearance characteristics matching that of the front placket and is continuous with the front placket. Buttons on the false placket match buttons on the rear placket. The false placket thus appears as though it is a continuation of the buttoned front placket and rear placket. However, the false placket his unopenable. An additional closure is preferably provided, either in the form of a rear closure or a side closure. This additional closure can be fitted with a zipper or other fastener for selectively closing and opening this additional closure.
