Fold it so whatever side you want him to see shows first.
I Iron them all the time keep the iron away from the decoration, sleeves, near neck/shoulders, and around the body part, or pop it back in the dryer warm it up and give a couple of good flops and lay flat while it's still warm.
Hope he enjoys it !!
Got a kick out of this........ Thanks for the memory, once Mom took several of my brothers friends and showed them how to iron a dress shirt and fold a shirt for less wrinkles.... years later, they still get a kick out of it, and still doing most of their own ironing for work etc.
