Inspired by the formal tuxedo shirts, our Beau shirt pattern is a feminine take on the classic menswear style. The delicate pleating and relaxed fit give this casual tailored shirt a unique character.

Between the concealed button placket and the front tucks, there is surely a lot of pleating involved, but some good markings and a bit of patience should see even beginners safely through and the end result is simply stunning. Effortlessly elegant, this shirt might become your everyday favorite!
