The Nocturne Shirt is a refined statement piece crafted from premium black cotton. Its fitted silhouette is elevated by a striking corset-style lace-up front that commands attention, while an artisanal hand-applied glass-beaded collar adds an exquisite finishing touch. Perfect for those seeking understated luxury with an edge, this long-sleeve design transitions effortlessly from evening occasions to bold everyday wear.

*Pre-Order Policy*

At Deborah Nzebele Collective, we operate on a small-batch and pre-order basis to minimise waste and support sustainable production.

This item is available either in limited stock or as a pre-order, depending on availability. Pre-order items are made especially for you!

How Pre-Orders Work

Pre-orders open during scheduled ordering windows throughout the year. Once a pre-order window closes, garments enter production. Estimated production time is 6–8 weeks from the close of the pre-order window. You will receive an email update once your order moves into production and again when it ships.

Pre-Order Cut-Off Dates (2026)

Order Window 1: December 2025 – February 2026

Order Window 2: May 2026 – June 2026

Order Window 3: September 2026 – October 2026

Orders placed after a cut-off will be fulfilled in the next production window.

Returns & Cancellations

Pre-order items can be cancelled within 48 hours of purchase. After this period, orders are final, as garments are made to order. If there are any delays beyond the estimated timeframe, we will contact you directly.
