An oversized, boxy shirt with a dropped back hem and half placket. Swingy and absurdly comfortable.
All seam allowances are 1.5cm unless otherwise stated.
Skill level – intermediate.
This is a multi-size paper pattern in an envelope, including sizes uk6 – 18 or uk18-28
Suitable fabrics:
3-6oz linen, cotton poplin, cotton lawn, cotton double gauze, Indian handlooms, cotton chambray, Tencel, hemp/cotton blends. Do not choose anything too heavy, as the back is lower than the front it will pull down making it uncomfortable at the neck!

Bertie linen. Elwen wears a 14, for an oversized look.
Mima linen. Elwen wears a size 10.
Jaffa Indian cotton. Katie wears a size 8.
