Description
Description
An oversized, boxy shirt with a dropped back hem and half placket. Relaxed, swingy and wonderfully comfortable, it’s an easy wardrobe staple with plenty of room through the body.
Sizing:
This is a multi-size paper pattern including UK sizes 6–18. A larger UK 18–28 size range is also available here.
Suggested Fabrics:
3–6oz linen, cotton poplin, cotton lawn, cotton double gauze, Indian handlooms, cotton chambray, Tencel and hemp/cotton blends.
Avoid anything too heavy, as the back hem sits lower than the front and a weighty fabric may pull the garment backwards and make it uncomfortable at the neckline.
You will also need:
- Matching thread.
- 6 x 11–15mm buttons.
- 0.3m lightweight interfacing.
Fabric Requirements:
Requirements are suitable for fabrics with or without nap.
