From Friday Pattern Company, the Butano Button Up shirt is both an understated essential, and the ultimate styling workhorse in your wardrobe!

The Butano has a relaxed fit with enough ease to feel effortless without being entirely oversized. It comes with options to be sewn with short sleeves or long sleeves with a bound placket and cuff. The optional neckerchief runs through belt loops on the collar stand and can be worn in a bunch of different ways.

The shirt also features bust darts, a back pleat, collar stand, and a cute chest patch pocket. The instructions feature clever construction to make the trickier aspects of sewing a button up achievable for the confident beginner!

• Sizes XS - 7X (32”/81cm -60”/152cm chest)
  
• Designed for woven fabrics
• Confident Beginner sewing level

Fit Notes:

The Butano has a relaxed fit without being oversized. It has plenty of ease through the body and generous length but isn’t slouchy through the shoulders and sleeves. The back hem is designed to hit mid butt. We recommend choosing a size based on your full chest measurement. 

The Butano Button Up was drafted using sample measurements for a B bra cup and for a height of 5’6”[168cm].

Fabric Choices:

The Butano Button Up is designed for woven fabrics. Any sort of light to medium weight woven is suitable. If you choose a fabric like a mid-weight twill or denim you will get a more structured top. If you choose a drapier fabric like a rayon challis or silk, you will get a blousier top.
