This is a sewing pattern and tutorial for a square-neck blouse, featuring a neckline with clean, angular corners.
This style is often used in cosplay costumes and is one of the more common designs you may see.
Button placement is included on the pattern.
You can certainly make it as everyday clothing, but if you are using it for cosplay, you may find it easier to replace the buttons with hook-and-loop tape (Velcro) for quick fastening.
Trim the seam allowances at the square corners, then sew the facing and add topstitching to help keep the neckline shape stable.
Although it may look complicated, it is not difficult to sew, so please give it a try.
After printing, align and join the pages along the matching lines, then cut out the pieces. The pattern already includes seam allowances, so you can use it as is.
