I AM Patterns Aimé is a men’s shirt, adapted to suit women. I feature all the makings of the classic men’s shirt; the button placket on the left, the tower placket at the cuff and the shirt collar, whilst adapting to more feminine styles with 3 other lengths, a slim collar and a slimmer sleeve. I have a back yoke to reinforce the shoulders, and I can be sewn with or without a centre back pleat. My curved hem shape is the perfect finishing touch to this great classic. The pattern is enclosed in an envelope. It contains the sewing pattern along with a step-by-step illustrated explanation guide. The different pieces overlap with each other so you will need to trace the pattern on paper. Seam allowances are included. ✂ SIZING: Women: 34 to 52 – Men: XXS to XXXL.
