This is a free sewing pattern for a military-style shirt, often seen in cosplay costumes but also perfect for stylish everyday wear. The design features a sharp, slightly angled collar and a front and back bodice divided into upper and lower sections for a structured look.
The pattern includes a built-in seam allowance (S/A), so it can be used as is after printing and assembling the sheets. This project is best suited for intermediate sewists, as it requires precision sewing and attention to detail.
Recommended fabrics include cotton twill, poplin, or light denim for a crisp finish. The shirt works well as part of a cosplay outfit, themed uniform, or casual outerwear. Create it in neutral colors for a classic military look, or use bold colors for a modern twist.
After printing, align the sheets along the join lines, tape or glue them together, and cut out the pieces. The pattern is ready to use with no additional seam allowances needed.
The production process is explained with translation software.
