Leila Shirt

Modern Sewing Co.

The Leila Shirt is a loose, elegant shirt with a strongly oversized silhouette. Very dropped shoulders, a roomy square body, full sleeves with an extra-long placket and gathering across the back give it an airy, relaxed shape.

It is particularly suited to breathable fabrics with drape and uses classic shirt-making details including French seams, cuffs and plackets, facings, button stands and inserted sleeves.

Fit note: The cut is intentionally very roomy; if you are between sizes, the designer recommends sizing down rather than up.
