English term (edited): riviera collar; Saint-Tropez collar

According to the image of the Riviera collar that I looked it, it is not a "col italien" because an Italian collar has a collar band and the Riviera collar does not.

I believe that they are referring to the Saint-Tropez collar (col Danton), in part because Saint-Tropez is in the French Riviera and in part because this style of collar does not have a collar band. This convertible collar is also used on camp shirts.

Cool paisley print shirt in navy. Oversized print with Riviera collar and barrel cuffs. Navy. M-XXL.

Camp Shirt
A Camp shirt is a loose, straight-cut, short-sleeved shirt or blouse with a simple placket front opening and a "camp collar" - a one-piece collar (no collar band) that can be worn open and spread or closed at the neck with a button and loop. It usually has a straight hemmed bottom falling at hip level, not intended to be tucked into trousers, etc. It is often the base for fancier fabrics such as Hawaiian prints, or tropically inspired weaves and patterns.
