The Formal Shirt is a clothing item added in the Royalty DLC. Nobles of Acolyte rank and above require either one of these, or a Eltex shirt, to consider themselves properly dressed and avoid a negative moodlet.
Acquisition
As a complicated garment, Formal Shirts can only be made at tailor benches, which requires Complex Clothing & Noble Apparel to be researched in order to be constructed. A Formal Shirt requires 65 of any textile, and 6,000 ticks (1.67 mins) of work.
It can also be found on Imperial Nobles, for sale at traders and as a quest reward.
Analysis
Prior to the nerfs, the Formal Shirt was arguably the best craftable shirt, exchanging weight and crafting time for better cold resistance. Post nerf, it has a complicated value proposition. It has the decreased cold insulation and mass of the t-shirt but the superior coverage of the button-down shirt, at the cost of a significantly longer crafting time and 44% more materials to craft.
Should Noble Apparel already be researched, the Formal Shirt can take the place of the button-down. They are just as protective, weigh less and pawns won't require an apparel change when they gain titles. In colonies with nobles, this means production can be simplified to a single type of shirt for all pawns, reducing redundancy. However their significant material and time cost make this less attractive.
