This is a free sewing pattern and tutorial for a ruffle blouse with a shawl collar and short sleeves.
The design features two tiers of ruffles on the front and one tier on each sleeve cuff. The ruffles are made separately and then attached, but you can also use pre-made decorative ruffles for a more luxurious look.
The construction is simple—just fold and insert the ruffles—making it beginner-friendly. The sleeves have a straight, relaxed shape that can be gathered at the cuffs for a soft, puffed effect.
The pattern has a loose fit with side darts and is available in sizes with wider shoulders for men. For cosplay purposes, you can adjust the pattern to match your desired costume design.
The pattern already includes seam allowances. Once printed, cut along the join lines and start sewing.

* Start sewing the body side of the "Neck Band" leaving a 0.5-inch seam allowance.
* Folding 0.5 inch with an iron in advance will make the process easier.
