collar stand
A collar has two basic components: stand and leaf. Whether made with one or two-piece construction, the stand (sometimes band) refers to the upright part from which the leaf folds.
Example sentence:
A collar stand is used when constructing a traditional dress or western style shirt; it helps the collar to "stand up" on your neck a bit before it folds down.
