Just know that wrinkle free involves formaldehyde.

I only buy no-iron dress shirts. I know they are stiff as a board and contain deadly chemicals, but I hate ironing shirts more than pretty much anything in the world. Having said that, there are tons of good options pout there. I usually buy about 4-8 Charles Tyrwhitt shirts per year and add a few from Jos A Bank or Nordstrom house brand if needed. Even though they are considered to be on the mid tier or lower end of dress shirts, but they work fine and look good.

Just throw your wrinkly all-cotton no-formaldehyde shirts in the dryer on medium with a damp (not wet) all white all cotton hand towel/wash cloth, and boom. Wrinkles-be-gone.™

Haha, that's the danger of being able to control all of the levers. One note about tailors, find a younger one. Old men go super conservative when holding a tape measure and will try to talk you into a huge shirt and pants up at your nipples. TRUTH. I had to actively argue with one once. Age is irrelevant to me. Experience is what I look for. The tailor I go to is superb, and he's an older guy. He's been in business for several decades and knows his stuff. I don't trust mall tailors though

That will help a bunch but nothing replaces a dry cleaning and proper pressing.
